Gaddafi loyalists continue to resist advance on Bani Walid

In Libya pockets of resistance continue to prevent the interim government from achieving their aim of liberating the entire country.

Fighters have taken control of the strategic town of Sabha but attempts to take Bani Walid have been repulsed for over a month now.

The town is situated along mountain ravines with Gaddafi loyalists holding the high ground.

The BBC's Alastair Leithead has been travelling with them.
