Reports suggest that snipers have been used by Gaddafi in the city. In the
video one can be seen on top of a building raising the green Libyan flag that
has been used by government supporters.
Explosions can also be heard across the city amid reports of artillery fire.
The rebels have been besieged by Gaddafi's forces in the eastern city for the
last few weeks but have said coalition air strikes have offered some relief.
