Update: Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi to deliver speech imminently, reports Al Arabiya. Stay tuned.

As Libya enters its seventh day of protests against the 40-year rule of Moammar Gadhafi's, live blogs and Twitter feeds are offering some of the best information on the nation's turbulence 

The violent unrest that inflamed swaths of Eastern Libya this weekend has spread to the capital, Tripoli. On Sunday, Libyan forces opened fire on unarmed demonstrators in Libya's second largest city Benghazi, reportedly killing more than 230 people. Now, thousands of protesters have flooded Tripoli from neighboring towns and are clashing with government forces. Al Jazeera reports that protesters have "burned, looted and destroyed" several buildings including police stations, a court house and the state TV headquarters.  The Guardian is reporting that Libyan war planes are bombing parts of Tripoli to thwart protesters. With events developing so rapidly in the North African country, the best ways to stay abreast of the latest is often by following live blogs and Twitter feeds. Here is what we will be refreshing constantly today:

Tens of thousands are heading here to be with him. We will fight until the last man, the last woman, the last bullet."
