Libya leader Gaddafi's armed forces are't close to breaking point despite hundreds of allied air strikes American military chiefs have said.
Adm Mike Mullen told a US Congress committee Col Gaddafi's troops still had 10 times the rebels firepower.
At the same hearing, Defence Secretary Robert Gates reiterated the US would put no boots on the ground in Libya.
Rebels and pro-Gaddafi forces appear to have reached a stalemate in their fight for control of the country.
In these days rebels have been urging international forces to conduct more air strikes.
Adm Mullen told the House of Representatives armed forces committee that bad weather had stopped them from identifying targets over the past three or four days.
