Washington (ANTARA News/AFP) - A son of Libya strongman Moamer Kadhafi on Friday said his family was "not afraid" after the United Nations approved air strikes against forces loyal to his father`s regime.

"We are in our country and with our people. And we are not afraid," Seif al-Islam Kadhafi told ABC News Nightline from the Libyan capital Tripoli.

"We will not be afraid. Come on! We will not be afraid. I mean, you are not helping to the people if you are going to bomb Libya, to kill Libyans. You destroy our country. Nobody is happy with that."(*)
