NATO has sought broader support for its bombing campaign in Libya, but so far, it's won no immediate new public commitments from its allies. The alliance's air power has been stretched in recent days after a series of heavy air-strikes were launched on Tripoli.
NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen says the alliance has the military assets needed to continue the operation, but broader backing would make it more sustainable.
Anders Fogh Rasmussen said, "For the sustainability of this operation it would be good to broaden the support and in general terms I have requested such broadened support either by increased contributions or new contributions or more flexible use of the assets provided for the operation."
British Defence Secretary Liam Fox also called on more countries to join the operation in Libya.
