Libyan rebels prepared to attack Muammar Qaddafi’s hometown of Sirte as their ruling council worked to solve the growing humanitarian crisis in the country.

The National Transition Council called on utility workers to return to their jobs, rebel spokesman Mahmoud Shammam said at a press conference broadcast today from Tripoli, the capital. Electricity may return “fairly soon” and the Interior Ministry was trying to open police stations, he said.
