All thirty-five journalists who were trapped in the Rixos Hotel in Libyan capital Tripoli have been released safely.

The foreign nationals, including a number of Brits, had spent five days holed up in the hotel, guarded by pro-Gaddaffi soldiers.

The rebels have offered a reward of around one million pounds for the
capture of Colonel Gaddafi.

It's being funded by two businessmen in Benghazi and an amnesty's being
promised for those within the dictator's inner circle who offer him up.
