TUNIS – Libyan rebels and representatives of Muammar Qadhafi's government held negotiations late Sunday in a hotel in southern Tunisia, a source with direct knowledge of the talks told Reuters.
There was no immediate confirmation that any talks were taking place from the government in Tripoli or the rebel movement.
The talks were being conducted behind closed doors at a hotel on the Tunisian island of Djerba near the border with Libya, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity. He did not identify any of those involved in the negotiations.
"Representatives of the rebels and Qadhafi representatives are having a meeting now," said the source.
