NATO has announced it will continue bombing Libya during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan if the Gaddafi regime carries on with attacks. NATO spokesperson Mike Bracken was asked about the bombing with Ramadan approaching next month.

Mike Bracken: “We need to wait and see whether the Gaddafi forces continue to shell and inflict harm on the people of Libya. If they do and we believe that there is risk to the lives of the Libyan people, to the men, women and children could be slaughtered or attacked, then I think it would be highly appropriate for the protection of those lives to continue. And NATO would use the mandate that it has to protect those lives.”
