British Apache helicopters strike Gaddafi's forces for first time | World news | guardian.co.uk: "British army Apache helicopters have attacked Muammar Gaddafi's troops for the first time, destroying a radar station and a military checkpoint and marking a sharp escalation in Nato Libya campaign.

One of the two Apaches came under fire early on Saturday from forces loyal to the Libyan leader near Brega, a strategic oil city close to the eastern frontline, but both returned successfully to HMS Ocean, stationed off the Libyan coast.

French Tiger helicopters struck separately, hitting 15 military vehicles and five command buildings at an undisclosed location."
