CAIRO: The Arab League will hold an emergency meeting in Cairo for delegates on Tuesday to discuss the Libyan revolt against Muammar Qaddafi, the League said.
Libyan security forces have cracked down fiercely on anti-government demonstrators, with fighting now spreading to the capital Tripoli after erupting in Libya’s oil-producing east last week.
The meeting will be at ambassadorial level and will take place at 5 pm Cairo time.
