Seven Libyan rebels killed....

At least seven Libyan rebels are reported to be dead in fighting against state forces in Misrata.
 International media reported that at least seven people were reported killed in fighting between rebels and forces loyal to Muammar Qaddafi in Misrata, which is controlled by the rebels.
The media quoted a doctor at a hospital in Misrata as saying that most of the casualties were rebel fighters killed in battles on the western and eastern edges of the city.

 Meanwhile, Libya said that its forces had hit a NATO warship while it was shelling areas in the western parts of the rebel-held Libyan city of Misrata.
But NATO denied that Libyan forces hit one of its warships off the coast near Misrata, saying that the report on Libyan state television was "totally fabricated."
 Libyan Oil Minister Shukri Ghanem left the country and went to neighbouring Tunisia.
 Tunisia threatened to report Libya to the UN Security Council if it fired into Tunisian border areas again.
