Hi, I'm Jill McGivering and looking forward to presenting the late edition of the programme today. Bitter divisions within Nato. French foreign minister Alain Juppe is calling for tougher action, accusing Nato of failing to do enough. France - and the British - want Nato to target weapons which are being used by pro-Gaddafi forces to attack civilians in Misrata.
Moussa Koussa - who was Colonel Gaddafi's foreign minister until he defected less than two weeks ago - says he feared Libya could become the new Somalia unless dialogue starts soon.
Nato said it IS vigorously enforcing the UN mandate to protect civilians. Some countries are clearly reluctant to step up the action and dragging their feet about committing more resources.
Should Nato do more? Or will it face accusations - as France did just yesterday when it played a key role in the arrest of Laurent Gbagbo in Ivory Coast - that it's interfering, even being "neo-colonialist"?
And where does this leave the African Union - whose attempt to broker a peace deal seems to have floundered. George Grant discusses why in today's Daily Telegraph.
Whether you're in a neighbouring country, a Nato country - or looking on elsewhere, do get in touch and tell us how far you think Nato should go in forcing Libya to a tipping point.
Libya - should Nato do more ?
