Foreign Ministers from around the world are gathering in the Swiss city of Geneva today to discuss their response to the mounting humanitarian crisis in Libya. Speaking ahead of the UN Human Rights Council meeting, the American secretary of State Hillary Clinton says she will discuss responses on both the humanitarian and political fronts with many of her counterparts from Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Opposition forces controlling eastern cities including Benghazi, where the uprising started 10 days ago, say they have formed a national council to act as the political face of the anti-Gaddafi movement. At least 1,000 people are believed to have been killed in nearly two weeks of violence in which eastern cities have fallen to anti-government forces.
