Libyan rebels are still fighting troops loyal to Colonel Gaddafi for control of Tripoli. The rebels say they've taken over most of the capital but are facing stiff resistance in some areas. Matthew Price is in Tripoli.
利比亚叛军依旧在与忠于卡扎菲上校的部队作战争夺的黎波里的控制权。叛军称，他们已经占领了首都大部分地区，但在一些地区正面临着顽强的抵抗。Matthew Price在的黎波里报道。

Tripoli today is a tale of two cities. In one, jubilant opposition supporters believe they are finally witnessing the end of Colonel Gaddafi. Gunmen control the streets of their neighbourhoods. Pro-Gaddafi forces are nowhere to be seen. The other Tripoli is one of anxiety, of fear, of heavy weapons and explosions. The battle for this city is not over. From Colonel Gaddafi's compound, smoke can be seen rising as the two sides fight for control there. And here, around the hotel where foreign journalists have stayed ever since this uprising began, Gaddafi's supporters control the streets. The premature celebrations of last night seem not to have been repeated during the day. Instead, many stay indoors, wondering how long the fight for Tripoli will last.
的黎波里今天上演双城记。在其中一个，欢呼的反对派支持者认为他们最终目睹了卡扎菲上校时代的终结。枪手控制了他们所在社区的街道，街道上已经看不到卡扎菲力量的踪影。的黎波里的其他地方则是焦虑，恐惧，重武器和爆炸。这座城市的战争还没有结束。由于双方仍在争夺控制权，卡扎菲上校官邸烟雾弥漫。在自抗议活动开始以来外国记者入住的酒店周围，卡扎菲的支持者控制了街道。昨晚提前举行的庆祝活动在今天白天没有重演。许多人待在室内，猜想的黎波里的战斗还要持续多久。

Colonel Gaddafi's whereabouts remain unknown. The head of the rebel National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdul Jalil, says the real moment of victory will come when the Libyan leader is captured. From Benghazi, Paul Wood reports.
卡扎菲上校至今仍下落不明。叛军全国过渡委员会领袖Mustafa Abdel Jalil称，利比亚领导人卡扎菲被抓获的时候，真正胜利的时刻才会到来。来自班加西，Paul Wood报道。

In the early hours of the morning, jubilant crowds in Benghazi celebrated the passing of Colonel Gaddafi's rule with volleys of automatic fire. But later in the day, here in the birthplace of the revolution, there was a more sober warning of the dangers posed by the victory unfolding in the capital. The leader of the National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdul Jalil, said he was worried there could be revenge attacks. If military commanders ignored him and carried out reprisals, he said, he would resign - a threat which gives a glimpse of the tensions within a movement now on the brink of forming a new government.
在清晨时分，班加西欢腾的人群发射自动火炮，庆祝卡扎菲统治已经过去。但是当天晚些时候，在革命的发源地，随着胜利的景象在这座城市逐渐展开，却出现了更加严厉的危险警告。过渡国民委员会领袖贾利勒称，他担心会遭遇报复性袭击。他说，如果军事指挥官无视他的存在，进行报复，他将辞职——该威胁导致正处于组建新政府边缘时刻出现了紧张的情绪。

President Obama has praised the Libyan people for what he called their extraordinary sacrifice in defying the Gaddafi regime and fighting to overthrow it.
奥巴马总统对利比亚人民在无畏的战斗中推翻卡扎菲上校政权的过程中所作出的非凡牺牲给予赞扬。

"Your courage and character have been unbreakable in the face of the tyrant. An ocean divides us, but we are joined in the basic human longing for freedom, for justice and for dignity. Your revolution is your own, and your sacrifices have been extraordinary. Now the Libya that you deserve is within your reach. Going forward, we will stay in close coordination with the TNC to support that outcome."
“面对暴君时，你们的勇气和品格牢不可破。海洋将我们隔开，但是我们在人类最基本的对自由，平等和尊严的向往是相同的。你们的革命是自己的，你们的牺牲是非凡的。现在，你们所希望拥有的利比亚已经触手可及。继续前进，我们将与全国过渡委员会保持密切合作，以支持你们取得这种结果。”

In other reaction, the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon warned that all United Nations members have a duty to comply with the International Criminal Court, which has issued arrest warrants against Colonel Gaddafi, his son Saif al-Islam and his intelligence chief.
在其他方的反应，联合国秘书长潘基文警告称，联合国所有成员国都有责任遵守国际刑事法庭的规定，他们已经发布了卡扎菲上校，他的儿子赛义夫和情报部长的逮捕令。

New York prosecutors have asked judges to drop sexual assault charges made against the former head of the International Monetary Fund, Dominique Strauss-Kahn. This follows a meeting between the district attorney and the hotel worker who made the allegations. Caroline Hepker is in New York.

And initially the case was thought to be extremely strong, but it later, over the weeks, seemed to fall apart as there were serious questions over the credibility of the woman, over the alleged victim and the story that she gave to the prosecutors and also in later media appearances over the weeks about exactly what happened and when.
