Fighting reported in Brega and Ajdabiya

In the coastal oil town of Brega in the east, Al-Arabiya television said revolutionary forces helped by NATO warplanes had attacked the town from land and sea.
Gaddafi’s government spokesman claimed that a coordinated land, sea and air attack by revolutionary forces and NATO forces against the eastern oil city of Brega was repulsed.
Gaddafi spokesman Moussa Ibrahim told journalists late today that NATO forces attacked government positions at Brega by both sea and land, while revolutionary forces attacked from the ground.
He said the attack was repulsed but described the close combat coordination of NATO and the revolutionary forces as a “dangerous development.”
NATO is carrying out a U.N.-sanctioned campaign against Gaddafi forces to protect Libyan civilians.
Revolutionary forces, known collectively as National Liberation Army, in the country’s eastern half have been stuck outside Brega for months, unable to take the strategic oil terminal.
