Now as usual the British government are neither confirming or denying this news however the source is from the Sunday times, a highly regarded newspaper. They are claiming that a 8 man unit from the SAS and a British diplomat have been capture by rebel forces in Libya. If true this must be putting more pressure on the British government to use military force to intervene in the current civil war starting in Libya
