New York: Muammar Gaddafi has lost a major ally -- the voluptuous personal nurse who travels with him everywhere. Galyna Kolotnytska has gone home, reports the New York Daily News.

Assets parked

London: Gaddafi has secretly deposited 3 billion pounds with a London based private wealth manager. A Swiss intermediary brokered a deal to transfer the funds.

African support

Bamako: His allies and even his own diplomats are abandoning him, but African fighters are pledging to defend embattled Libyan leader Gaddafi "to the end." Witnesses have described mercenaries being flown in to put down the rebellion, but most fighters are already in the strife-torn country.
