The head of Libyan armed forces ordered a ceasefire Sunday after heavy antiaircraft fire filled the sky over the capital city of Tripoli in response to U.S. and European air strikes. Western leaders had met in an emergency summit in Paris Saturday and determined that Moammar Gadhafi's continued assault on his own people left the international community no choice. BBC News reported that a U.S. military official described the actions as "successful" and that more Western planes and bombers were used in raids early today. It also reported that Libyan state TV said 48 people were killed, though that claim could not be verified. A defiant Gadhafi said on state TV: "We will remain alive and you will all die."
