U.N.: Number of Refugees Leaving Libya Decreases 
-------------------------------------------------



The United Nations is reporting the number of people trying to flee
Libya has fallen as heavily armed government forces intensified their
presence on the Tunisian border and on roads leading up to it. Roughly
15,000 people had been crossing the border every day, but on Thursday
that number plunged to 2,000.
