:02:04. > :02:08.Good evening. Welcome to the BBC's news at 6pm. He's on the run, but
:02:08. > :02:13.Libya's Colonel Gaddafi has issued another call to arms. He's told
:02:13. > :02:19.supporters to resist what he called enemy rats.
:02:19. > :02:24.Within the last hour, his words were broadcast on a pro-regime
:02:24. > :02:27.channel, calling on all supporters to purrryfy Tripoli. In the capital,
:02:28. > :02:32.medical staff are working at full stretch, dealing with casualties
:02:32. > :02:37.from the last four days of bitter fighting. On tonight's news at 6pm,
:02:37. > :02:41.we will report on warnings of a humanitarian crisis. We go into the
:02:41. > :02:47.dictator's underground network of bunkers and we are with rebel

:03:02. > :03:07.A warren of tunnels which run for miles and could have been his
:03:07. > :03:15.escape route. Today, rebel fighters were taking the tour, seeing where
:03:15. > :03:21.Gaddafi's troops had been holed up. Abandoned in a corner, some of
:03:21. > :03:26.their supplies. This underground labyrinth, this secret world was
:03:26. > :03:30.incredibly well constructed. The ceilings here are high, the walls
:03:30. > :03:34.very solid. Over here, I have just found a phone which was obviously
:03:34. > :03:39.used for internal communications. This is a kind of a motorised cart.
:03:39. > :03:44.It looks like a golf buggy. Who knows if the Libyan leader was
:03:44. > :03:49.transported through these tunnels in this cart? The Libyan leader
:03:49. > :03:54.thought he would not be disturbed here behind these reinforced doors.
:03:54. > :03:59.While he may have been able to flee into the shadows above ground,
:03:59. > :04:04.others were cut down in the battle for Tripoli. At the edge of the
:04:04. > :04:09.compound today, we found bodies lying where they fell.
:04:09. > :04:15.We can't say who killed them. This man appears to have been executed.
:04:16. > :04:20.His hands were still bound. A short distance away, in Abu Salim
:04:20. > :04:26.the rebels are hunting for a sniper's nest. Up ahead, a glimpse
:04:26. > :04:36.of a bigger threat. Could these be enemy troops?
:04:36. > :04:41.
:04:41. > :04:45.That was the answer. Soon a full-scale street battle.
:04:45. > :04:50.The fighters were dangerously exposed.
:04:50. > :05:00.They braut out their improvised big guns. -- brought out their
:05:00. > :05:01.
:05:01. > :05:05.improvised big guns and their rocket-propelled grenades.
:05:05. > :05:09.Another loud burst of rebel gunfire there. They believe they there are
:05:09. > :05:19.Colonel Gaddafi's troops up this road. They have been trying to push
:05:19. > :05:21.
:05:22. > :05:27.forward. They say it's.... For about an hour, we were pinned down.
:05:27. > :05:34.Eventually we managed to get away. This was just one pocket of
:05:34. > :05:42.resistance. Who knows how many more there may be?
:05:42. > :05:48.And how long it will take to free Abu Salim? Down the road, this man
:05:48. > :05:52.told us his entire family is trapped behind enemy lines. "I'm
:05:52. > :06:00.ready to die to get them out," he said. The rebels are tightening
:06:01. > :06:04.their grip here, but in the capital these are still dangerous days.
:06:04. > :06:08.The four-day battle for Tripoli has seen some of the most vicious
:06:08. > :06:12.fighting yet. Tonight, there are signs of retribution meted out by
:06:12. > :06:18.both sides in the final desperate clashes. Rupert Wingfield-Hayes
:06:18. > :06:22.reports from one of the main hospital in the Mitiga district,
:06:22. > :06:27.where there is evidence of how the die-hard supporters of the regime
:06:27. > :06:31.dealt with their opponents. Outside the Mitiga Hospital in
:06:31. > :06:34.Tripoli, they are loading the remains of 17 men on to a truck.
:06:35. > :06:40.The bodies were brought here yesterday and handed over to a
:06:40. > :06:43.shocked and horrified staff. They think these 17 men were picked
:06:43. > :06:47.up by Gaddafi forces at check points around the city and taken to
:06:47. > :06:52.a school house near here, which was used as a temporary prison. They
:06:52. > :06:55.were then tortured. As the Gaddafi forces retreated they were executed.
:06:55. > :07:00.The stench here is appalling. I have been inside. I can tell you
:07:00. > :07:05.one of the victims looks to be about 15 years old. This is now the
:07:05. > :07:10.scene of a war crimes investigation. This doctor from Manchester, who is
:07:10. > :07:13.a volunteer in Libya, is suddenly its chief investigator. We spent
:07:13. > :07:17.some time investigating the bodies so these things could be documented
:07:17. > :07:21.in case they needed to be sent as evidence to the International
:07:21. > :07:27.Criminal Court. A lot of the injuries, I would say half of the
:07:27. > :07:30.17 bodies had bullet wounds to the back of the head. Many of them had
:07:30. > :07:34.disfiguring injuries to their legs and hands which could not be quite
:07:34. > :07:38.explained. Inside the hospital, the wards are crowded with wounded
:07:38. > :07:44.rebels and civilians. Doctors here say they have been overwhelmed by
:07:44. > :07:50.the fighting. In a corner of one ward, we meet this man. He is the
:07:50. > :07:56.only survivor of the school executions.
:07:56. > :08:00.He says they were tortured for days. Urine was poured over them and
:08:00. > :08:06.finally two nights ago they were ordered outside.
:08:06. > :08:11.The men were made to Neil against a wall, he says, and -- knell against
:08:11. > :08:13.a wall he says and sprayed with machine gunfire. If they catch
:08:13. > :08:22.Gaddafi alive evidence from men like this may be crucial to a
:08:22. > :08:28.prosecution at The Hague. Let's go live to Tripoli and join
:08:28. > :08:32.our world affairs editor Jon Simpson, who is there. Earlier I
:08:32. > :08:37.saw reports, claims that the rebel forces had surrounded what they
:08:37. > :08:42.thought was the Colonel's hidout. What do you make of those -- hide-
:08:42. > :08:51.out, what do you make of those rumours? It turned out there were a
:08:51. > :08:55.couple of snipers in a a building that is just, that just edges on to
:08:55. > :09:02.his former compound. There's been a lot of fighting there, a lot of
:09:02. > :09:09.shooting there. And the two snipers were killed. No sign of Gaddafi. If
:09:09. > :09:12.you recall what happened in 2003, in Iraq, when Saddam Hussein was
:09:12. > :09:18.overthrown, first of all there were endless stories about sightings and
:09:18. > :09:26.so forth. It is just part of what tends to happen when a regime like
:09:26. > :09:31.this falls. Everyone b everybody of course is longing on the rebel side
:09:31. > :09:34.to see Colonel Gaddafi captured. We are in the last round, as it were
:09:34. > :09:43.of the fighting. You can perhaps hear people shooting in the
:09:43. > :09:52.background now to me. They are not firing at anybody. They are firing
:09:52. > :09:57.in the air out of joy. Apologies. We had a few technical problems
:09:57. > :10:01.there. They are preparing for what could
:10:01. > :10:07.be the final battle of the six- month revolution in the city of
:10:07. > :10:17.Sirte. They are up against the Colonel's most fervent supporters.
:10:17. > :10:20.
:10:20. > :10:27.It's not over yet. Though the battlefield is shrinking.
:10:27. > :10:31.These rebels are pushing up re- enforcements. They are facing a
:10:31. > :10:36.stubborn enemy. We are 60 miles from Sirte, Colonel Gaddafi's home
:10:36. > :10:41.town. His forces had been expected to retreat there, to make a last
:10:41. > :10:45.stand. They have not been falling back. Far from it.
:10:45. > :10:50.We were engaged with the enemy from this morning with heavy artillery.
:10:50. > :10:55.Maybe you could hear the explosions every now and again. They had the
:10:55. > :11:00.chance to go back to Sirte. They did not. I they are coming from
:11:00. > :11:05.Sirte now. REPORTER: They are attacking? They are attacking us.
:11:05. > :11:09.This group of rebels believe they are facing more than 1,000 Gaddafi
:11:09. > :11:14.troops a few miles up the road. They are baffled by the continued
:11:14. > :11:20.resistance. Gaddafi ran away. They got Tripoli.
:11:20. > :11:24.Game over. Apparently they - it's personal. I don't know what they
:11:25. > :11:28.are fiegtding in. They must -- fighting for. They must believe in
:11:28. > :11:32.this guy. We have them in the corner. It is a matter of time now.
:11:32. > :11:35.The rebels hope that talks with tribal leaders in Sirte will end
:11:35. > :11:40.this peacefully. If not they are building up forces on either side
:11:41. > :11:44.of the town. Military commanders on this side
:11:44. > :11:49.had confidently predicted that once Colonel Gaddafi was removed from
:11:49. > :11:54.power his followers would give up the fight. Some of the loyalists,
:11:55. > :11:59.at least, are confounding those expectations. They seem determined
:11:59. > :12:03.to fight for the last few slithers of territory which belong to the
:12:03. > :12:11.old regime. This afternoon, exchanges between the Gaddafi
:12:11. > :12:21.troops artillery and rebel tanks. Both sides seem to be digging in
:12:21. > :12:23.
:12:23. > :12:26.Today, the rebels have called for urgent financial help from the
:12:26. > :12:30.international community to establish a new Government. Here,
:12:30. > :12:34.the Foreign Secretary, William Hague, insisted Britain's resolve
:12:34. > :12:38.to help protect civilians were unwavering. Our correspondent is at
:12:38. > :12:43.the Foreign Office now. On the question of money, how quickly can
:12:43. > :12:45.the international community deliver this to opposition forces in Libya?
:12:45. > :12:48.Well, the Foreign Office here, William Hague, the British
:12:48. > :12:52.Government and the French and the United States are among those who
:12:52. > :12:58.think it should be very easy to channel large amounts of money to
:12:58. > :13:04.the opposition in Libya. Why? Because of course the UN froze the
:13:04. > :13:08.Gaddafi regime assets overseas. We are talking about a fantastic sum
:13:08. > :13:11.of money, some �100 billion spread around the world from the Gaddafi
:13:11. > :13:16.regime. It has to be unfrozen of course. That is where the problems
:13:16. > :13:20.start. Some countries are holding out against an unfreezing by the UN,
:13:21. > :13:25.particularly the South Africans. They have a long history of active
:13:25. > :13:29.support for Colonel Gaddafi. It dates back to the days when Nelson
:13:29. > :13:35.Mandela was released from prison. Colonel Gaddafi was one of the
:13:35. > :13:38.first he visited. He thought he had given unwaiving support to the ANC.
:13:38. > :13:43.That translates into today's realities where South Africa is
:13:43. > :13:47.reluctant to recognise the rebels and so far is holding out than

:22:41. > :22:43.He brought us the iPod, the iPhone and a host of iconic gadgets, but
:22:44. > :22:49.now one of the most influential bosses in the technology world is
:22:49. > :22:52.stepping down. Steve Jobs is resigning as chief executive of the
:22:52. > :23:01.computer giant Apple after struggling with health problems.
:23:01. > :23:06.Rory Cellan-Jones has the story. From the Apple Macintosh to the
:23:06. > :23:09.iPod to be iPad. It is the company that has persuaded consumers to pay
:23:09. > :23:14.top prices for gadgets that look and sometimes work better than
:23:14. > :23:19.their rivals. We are going to make some history today. Apple's
:23:19. > :23:23.founding genius was never one to undersell his products. Now he is
:23:23. > :23:33.stepping down. Steve Jobs has been in poor health for some time and in
:23:33. > :23:40.
:23:40. > :23:45.a letter to the Apple board, who You have just seen some pictures of
:23:45. > :23:48.Mackintosh. Now I would like to show you it in person. Despite his
:23:48. > :23:52.early success with the ground- breaking Apple Mac, he was forced
:23:52. > :23:57.out of Apple in the 80s but returned a decade later to breed
:23:57. > :24:00.new life in this ailing company. Not everyone liked his autocratic
:24:00. > :24:06.style but one long-term admirer sent me this message about his
:24:06. > :24:10.iPhone. It is Stephen Fry, I am very happy to speak about Steve
:24:10. > :24:14.Jobs because I am lucky to have known him for some time. I don't
:24:14. > :24:19.think there is a human being on the planet who has been as influential
:24:19. > :24:23.in the last 30 years on the way culture has developed. For Steve
:24:23. > :24:28.Jobs, think different was not just a slogan, it is the way he ran his
:24:28. > :24:32.business. Nobody thought a computer firm knew anything about the music
:24:32. > :24:37.business before the iPod came along and changed everything. Apple had
:24:37. > :24:42.never made a mobile phone before the iPhone came along, and the idea
:24:42. > :24:46.that many people would want to use a tablet computer seemed far-
:24:46. > :24:50.fetched before Steve Jobs showed off the iPad. Now the firm will
:24:50. > :24:53.have to think different without him. Continuing to break new ground
:24:53. > :24:58.without the man who has come to embody a book he is bound to be a
:24:58. > :25:03.challenge. I think it will be hard for them to really find that level
:25:03. > :25:06.of commitment and passion that Steve brought. That said, there are
:25:06. > :25:10.still extraordinary people at Apple, it is still one of the great
:25:11. > :25:15.companies of the world. The loyal fans who queued for every new
:25:15. > :25:22.product will not move away in a hurry, but the firm's new leaders
:25:22. > :25:26.will have to prove that they too can spot the next big thing.
:25:26. > :25:30.The hunt goes on for Colonel Gaddafi but he has issued another
:25:30. > :25:35.defiant call to arms for his supporters. Pockets of fighting
:25:35. > :25:40.continued in Tripoli as Die Hards resist the rebels. We had been
:25:40. > :25:44.inside the dictator's hidden bunkers beneath the compound to see
:25:44. > :25:48.his command centre and we have seen how there is a growing humanitarian
:25:48. > :25:52.crisis in Libya, with hospital struggling to cope with the wounded
:25:52. > :25:57.from the bitter fighting of the last few days. Let's get the final
:25:57. > :26:04.word from John Simpson. When we see the pictures from Tripoli, it seems
:26:04. > :26:10.very chaotic. What is it like? Is there central direction?
:26:10. > :26:14.Well, the thing is, George, as you can perhaps here, there is firing
:26:14. > :26:20.going on. There is still a lot of shooting but it isn't actually
:26:20. > :26:25.fighting battles, it really is still celebrating. The battles are
:26:25. > :26:29.few and far between. There was one this afternoon when they thought
:26:29. > :26:34.they had caught Colonel Gaddafi but hadn't. Those things do go on.
:26:34. > :26:39.There are pockets of fighting where they are weeding out individuals
:26:39. > :26:42.snipers. That is still going on. But in terms of the city itself,
:26:42. > :26:48.you can drive around it just about everywhere without too many
:26:48. > :26:53.problems, and the rebels themselves do seem to be quite disciplined.
:26:53. > :26:58.They behave quite reasonably to everybody and they seem to be
:26:58. > :27:00.obeying orders. What there isn't here is proper electricity, water,
:27:00. > :27:10.and there is not any proper government.
:27:10. > :27:14.Thank you. A fine evening for quite a few of
:27:14. > :27:19.us but there is more rain, particularly across Northern
:27:19. > :27:23.Ireland, South Wales and south-west England, and then later in the
:27:23. > :27:27.night we are expecting more heavy rain to creep across the South East.
:27:27. > :27:33.We will keep those showers in the south-west corner well into the
:27:33. > :27:39.night. Temperatures can drop down to single figures in the north. On
:27:39. > :27:44.Friday, there will be some sunny spells on offer, particularly
:27:44. > :27:51.across Scotland early on. But we will see showers. But the main
:27:51. > :27:54.focus is a wreath in England, where it will be a very, very soggy day.
:27:54. > :27:59.Much of Yorkshire, a good part of the Midlands and East Anglia will
:27:59. > :28:04.see rain, and with that rain on the east coast, temperatures just 15
:28:04. > :28:09.degrees. This up the east should bright up but there may be very
:28:09. > :28:15.heavy showers on the south-west coast. Every now and then, there
:28:15. > :28:24.will be sunny intervals. Some thunderstorms perhaps across parts
:28:24. > :28:28.of Wales. Once the fog goes, Northern Ireland should brighten up.
:28:28. > :28:33.A few showers in Scotland. Make the most of that in Scotland tomorrow
:28:33. > :28:38.because on Saturday, the rain in eastern England extends North,
:28:38. > :28:41.accompanied by an unusually strong wind. Really quite miserable in the
:28:41. > :28:47.North East. Elsewhere will be breezy with sunny spells but a lot
:28:47. > :28:52.of showers. Through the weekend, hopefully the showers will be fewer
:28:52. > :28:55.and further in between. It will turn dry, if not necessarily
:28:55. > :29:03.heating up too much. More on the weekend and the Hurricane Irene
