Bin Jawad is the latest town to fall as Libyan Freedom Figters rapid advance to west takes them closer to Gaddafi-held Sirte.
Libyan Freedom Figters are moving westwards towards a possible showdown with dictator Muammar Gaddafi's forces.
Opposition forces backed by coalition air strikes have already seized control of the key towns of Bin Jawad, Ras Lanuf, Uqayla, Brega and Ajdabiya in a rapid advance along the coastline.
Meanwhile, the next town in the Libyan Freedom Figters path, Gaddafi's hometown of Sirte, was reported to be under attack by coalition warplanes for the first time late on Sunday, according to Libyan state television.
Coalition air strikes against targets in Tripoli also resumed on Sunday night with explosions heard in the Tripoli. Gaddafi's Brutal forces appeared to be withdrawing eastwards. Those still in Bin Jawad, the latest town to fall to freedom figters, surrendered without a fight.
"It seems there has a been withdrawal and a surrender of Gaddafi's bloody forces, not a battle. They removed some of their vehicles that were not bombed further up the road but they removed these vehicles in haste." one of the Cilivians said.
The Freedom Fighters Main Target is to head west towards tripoli through on and only coastal road exist their. The problem they are going to face is the huge roadblock ahead of them and that's town Sirte which is a Gaddafi's stronghold where many of his troops are located but with support from coalition froces, freedom figters might not find it that hard.
