TRIPOLI: Libyan rebels entered the capital on Sunday and were greeted by residents who ran alongside their convoy, an AFP correspondent said.
The welcome followed gunbattles with fighters loyal to Libyan leader Moamer Qadhafi.
On their way into Tripoli from the west, the rebels advanced in a convoy of around 100 vehicles as onlookers fired celebratory gunfire into the air, the correspondent said.
