BU MARIEM,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Libya (AP) — An American fighter jet crashed in Libya's rebel held east, both crew ejecting safely as the aircraft spun from the sky during the third night of the U.S. and European air campaign. Moammar Gadhafi's forces shelled rebels regrouping in the dunes outside a key eastern city on Tuesday, and his snipers and tanks roamed the last major opposition-held city in the west.
The crash was the first major loss for the U.S. and European military air campaign, which over three nights appears to have hobbled Gadhafi's air defenses and artillery and rescued the rebels from impending defeat. But the opposition force,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with more enthusiasm than discipline,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], has struggled to exploit the gains. The international alliance, too,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], has shown fractures as officials struggle to articulate an endgame.
