Despite growing support for anti-government demonstrators, both at home and abroad, there’s been a call for “concrete action” by Ban Ki-moon, the UN secretary-general. And its most powerful body votes on fresh sanctions against Gaddafi and his entourage. This after the Libyan leader joined his supporters in the capital – again vowing not to step down from office – and to fight to the end. And these are the implications – protesters fired upon in Tripoli, where another crackdown began after Friday prayers. We’ll hear from someone who was there. But just 50km away in the town of Zawiya there is a different picture. Amateur video appears to show more soldiers switching sides. Al Jazeera’s Tarek Bazley reports.
