National Transitional Council (NTC) forces said on Sunday they had managed to take control of Al Giza district, where a large number of pro-Gaddafi forces were based, as well as city's university, and Ibn Sina hospital.
Some 15 Gaddafi loyalists were captured from the hopsital, a witness told the Reuters news agency.
