Forces loyal to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi have launched air strikes and engaged in ground fighting with rebel forces advancing from the eastern part of the country.
Fighting in Libya is now well into its third week with both sides claiming successes.
Around the central town of Bin Jawwad, fighting intensified Sunday as government forces pushed back rebels who previously had gained ground.
Early in the day, Libya’s state television reported that pro-Gadhafi groups retook towns in the disputed western and eastern parts of Libya.
Opposition spokesman Wanif Bou Hanada disputed the reports. "The revolutionaries continue to control the territories that they liberated and the information broadcast on the government radios is not correct," he said. "Their forces are not where they say they are and journalists can see that for themselves."
