The red marker shows the last named reported location of anti-Gadaffi fighters. Though they are now saying they have reached the center of the town which I assume is closer to the sea.

Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr, reporting from the battle in Sirte, said the momentum in the fighting has so far been behind the onrushing NTC troops.

Right. AlJazeera sets the propaganda tone and the rest of the media follows.
