Tens of thousands of supporters of Colonel Gaddafi have gathered in Tripoli as the Libyan leader warned his forces could strike in Europe.
Loud explosions have been reported in the capital after Col Gaddafi's address, in which he vowed to stay in power and called on Nato to stop its bombing campaign or face "catastrophe".
His audio speech was broadcast to huge crowds gathered in Green Square.
Sky's Lisa Holland, who is reporting from Tripoli under the supervision of Libyan authorities, said it was one of the biggest turnouts in the capital for some time.
She said: "Col Gaddafi said homes, offices and families would become legitimate targets.
"He said, 'We are able to move to Europe like locusts. We advise you to retreat before you are dealt a disaster'."
