Libya using grad rockets in neighborhoods

Amnesty International strongly condemned Libya Friday in a statement to the press. The human rights organization claims Libyan forces are renewing rocket attacks against civilians.  In the statement, the group said forces loyal to strongman Muammar Gaddafi are once again firing into Misrata\'s residential areas.  According to the group, a 14-year-old boy and two women were killed, and several others were injured in the past few days, as \"Grad\" rockets hit their homes. “Families in Misrata are once again living in fear of being killed as rockets rain down on their homes and it’s impossible for the terrified residents to find safe shelter.\" Amnesty expressed concern that Grad rockets are \"indiscriminate weapons\" and \"their use may amount to war crimes.\" “Such attacks much cease immediately. Colonel al-Gaddafi and those around him and in his armed forces responsible for ordering and launching indiscriminate rocket attacks on Misrata’s residential neighbourhoods know full well that the victims will be civilians not involved in the conflict. “They must realize that their actions may result in their being made to answer one day to the most serious of charges, of having perpetrated war crimes and crimes against humanity.\" According to the statement, Amnesty is receiving more reports of casualties from rocket attacks, but that communication is difficult in the city, where phone lines and internet connections have been cut.
