Clashes between Libyan rebels and supporters of ruler Moamer Gaddafi on the front line in Bin Jawad killed two people and wounded dozens more on Sunday, doctors in the next town into the rebel-held east told AFP.
"Two people died, and around 30 were injured. Three of them are in a critical situation," said Abdrabou al-Zheiti, a doctor at Ras Lanuf hospital.
"There are still people arriving."
A second doctor spoke of more casualties, including a French journalist, who was not believed to be in a serious condition.
"We have two dead and 40 to 45 wounded," said Sami al-Saiti. "They are Libyan rebels, except the French man."
Rebel forces retreated from Bin Jawad following the clashes in which their fighters said they had been heavily outgunned.
