U.S. has nothing to do with bombing?
The U.S., UK and France are continuing strikes after the UN authorised action to protect Libyan civilians from government forces.
A missile strike has destroyed a building in Libya's capital, Tripoli, which Western officials say was one of Col Muammar Gaddafi's command centres.
The action against Col Gaddafi's military began on Saturday afternoon with French air strikes in the east. A barrage of cruise missiles, launched from U.S. and UK ships and submarines followed.
Meanwhile, the U.S. has announced that it has nothing to do with the bombarding, which was initiated by the UK.
U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said on Sunday Libyans themselves would decide the future of their country and stressed the limits of U.S. military involvement there, despite a heavy American-led assault on Muammar Gaddafi's forces.
Gates said the U.S. will not have a "preeminent role" in the coalition that will maintain a no-fly zone over Libya, and expected to turn over "primary responsibility" for the mission to others within days.
Agence France-Presse journalists Dave Clark and Roberto Schmidt, have been missing since Saturday morning in Libya while working in the eastern Tobruk region, the agency said Sunday. lark, a 38-year-old reporter, and photographer Schmidt, 45, had informed the agency in an email on Friday of their plans to head 35 kilometres (22 miles) out of Tobruk.
They planned on meeting opponents of the regime of Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi and speaking with refugees fleeing the battles between rebels and the loyalists.
Clark and Schmidt were accompanied by a photographer from the Getty Images agency, Joe Raedle.
The journalists have not been heard of since sending the email Friday night.
Since the February 15 start of the insurrection against Kadhafi's regime, a number of foreign journalists have been arrested in Libya, among them representatives of New York Times and Al-Jazeera.
Col Gaddafi has ruled Libya for more than 40 years. An uprising against him began last month after the long-time leaders of neighbouring Tunisia and Egypt were toppled.
