""They are bombing us and women and children are dying," said an   elderly woman, wrapping her shroud to hide her face.  Over three thousand men, women and children have fled the besieged city in the   last three days. Risking their lives to cross the front lines in search of   refuge, they described grim and bloody conditions inside the town.  "There is no medicine, no food, no electricity. It is a disaster,"   said Mohammed Omar Farjan, 37, his two young boys sitting wide-eyed on the   laps of their mother and aunts crammed in the back of the car.  "I have to go to Tripoli as my wife is expecting a baby in the next week.   I don't know what we will find there but the situation is too bad to stay   here," said Ahmed Gaddadfa, 42.  Rebel fighters manning rows of rocket launchers said they knew they were   fighting civilians, but that Sirte's residents had "chosen to die"."   (thanks William)
