UK invites Libyan rebels to open office in London
London (AMIPS) - The British Prime Minister, David Cameron, invited Thursday Libya's dissident Transitional National Council to open an office in London during talks with rebel leader Mustafa Abdul Jalil.
"The government is today inviting the council to establish a formal office here in London," Cameron said after the talks in Downing Street, his first face-to-face discussions with Mr. Jalil.
The Chief of the Rebel National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdul Jalil, urged allies to send the rebels more weapons so they could drive the Libyan leader from power.
NATO airstrikes on Kadhafi's compound on Thursday killed three people, hours after Libyan state television showed the first footage of Kadhafi since another attack on April 30 that the regime said had targeted him.
