Revolutionary forces say troops loyal to embattled Libyan ruler Muammar Gaddafi use Israeli-made weapons to target Misratah.

An opposition spokesman, speaking on condition of anonymity, told AFP on Saturday that Gaddafi forces abandoned Israeli-made rocket-propelled grenades after they failed to recapture Misratah, which is located 150 kilometers (95 miles) east of the Libyan capital city of Tripoli. He also accused government troops of "crimes against humanity" after they targeted inhabited areas and houses in the coastal city of Misratah. Opposition troops have reportedly repelled Gaddafi forces' attempt to enter Misratah from three fronts.

Meanwhile, opposition forces are claiming to have captured the strategic oil port town of Brega on Saturday as the battle rages. US and allies warplanes bombed targets in and around Brega overnight, accidentally striking a pickup truck manned by revolutionaries. Libyan state TV claimed that civilians were hit by another US-led airstrike over the southwestern city of Sabha.
