Ramps of the NATO pressure on LibyaNew: are more than 150 injured in Misrata, medical sources in the forces of sayMoammar Gadhafi are trying to re-enter the city "Is horrible", says a rebel fighterA NATO official says addressed to Gadhafi is justified

Misrata, Libya (CNN) - at least 31 people they were killed on Friday as fighting took place in the Western City Libya of Misrata, where forces loyal to Muammar Gadhafi tried to enter from the West and South.

More than 150 were wounded, said medical sources in the Hekmah Hospital of the city.

Friday casualties were suffered the heaviest in the past month, said Dr Khaled Abu Falgha. Doctors chanted, "the martyrs are beloved God" each time that a patient died, he said.

The rebels said that gadhafi also forces Shell near Zlitan, well as positions of rebels at Dafniya. Tanks were rolling and frontline witnesses said forces pro-Gadhafi were firing rockets and missiles.

"It's horrible," said a rebel fighter. "The revolutionaries are taking power tank in their breasts".

The city was under continued bombardment on Friday evening.

Misrata has taken the brunt of the fighting in Libya during the past two months. More than 1,000 people were believed that since the beginning of February, including 686 civilian residents have been killed here.

Gadhafi forces besieged Misrata and cut off access to the land, leaving the port as the only way of escape. He withdrew to the perimeter, but they were trying to regain control of the city, about 130 miles (209 km) East of Tripoli.

The fight broke out a day after graphic world powers outside the course of a post of Libya Gadhafi met in the United Arab Emirates. The Secretary of State of United States Hillary Clinton and others urged the international community to maintain pressure on the regime Libya. A spokesman for the opposition predicted that gadhafi would fall within days.

But the struggle on Friday was evidence that, despite 10,439 sorties by aircraft of NATO and a revolt of a strong opposition, Gadhafi remained strong.

NATO officials have said repeatedly that air strikes were exclusively aimed at military targets, but a senior military official in NATO with operational knowledge of the mission told CNN that attack to Gadhafi was justified under the mandate of the United Nations of Libya.

The resolution applies to the Libyan leader because, as Chief of the armed forces, is part of the structure of command and control, and therefore a legitimate target, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The official was not authorized to speak with the media.

But the NATO official refused to give a direct answer when asked if he was still white Gadhafi.

Spokesman for the NATO Oana Lungescu, however, said that the Alliance was not specifically to Gadhafi.

Lungescu said that "we address critical military capabilities that could be used to attack civilians, including command and control centres that could be used to plan and organize this kind of attack,".
