Dotun Adebayo is live through the night as jubliant crowds welcome rebel forces into the heart of Tripoli.

After six months of unrest in Libya, rebel forces march into capital Tripoli, and claim to be in control of the majority of the city.

The rebels receive a rapturous welcome in Green Square - which has been a symbol of Gadaffi's hold on power, where his supporters gathered every night.

The whereabouts of Colonel Gaddafi aren't know but his son, Saif-al Islam, is captured, and the home of another, Mohammed, is surrounded by rebels. One of their leaders in Tripoli says that pockets of resistance remain.

Up All Night speaks to the people at the heart of the nights events and gets reaction from the UK, the US, NATO and from around the world.
