Proceeding contribution from Lord Hague of Richmond (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 April 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Middle East and North Africa.
Middle East and North Africa
Yes, I believe that the NATO command—NATO plus the Arab allies, I should stress—are aware of these situations, some of which are difficult to help for the reasons of close-quarters fighting that were described earlier. NATO air strikes have been used in recent days to relieve the pressure not only on Misrata but on towns in the west of Libya, with some effect. That will continue and, if necessary, intensify.
