TRIPOLI, Libya—The North Atlantic Treaty Organization struck Tripoli with a series of air strikes early Thursday, as the alliance sought to build pressure on Colonel Moammar Gadhafi just hours after it extended its Libyan mission and another top official abandoned the regime.

Shortly after midnight local time, several blasts echoed across Tripoli. A NATO statement said the strikes hit a vehicle storage facility and a surface-to-air missile launcher in the capital and other targets, including ammunitions depots and radars, in other Gadhafi-held territory. Libyan government officials weren't available to offer information on the blasts.

The air strikes came shortly after NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Wednesday the organization and its partner countries agreed to extend its Libya mission for a further 90 days. "This decision sends a clear message to the Gadhafi regime: We are determined to continue our operation to protect the people of Libya," the Secretary-General said in Brussels.

I only hope these NATO strikes do not kill civilians, as has happened in Afghanistan!
