US drone aircraft are to be used in Libya, officials have announced.

The remotely operated planes can fly lower and take more accurate photos of forces on the ground than conventional spy planes.

The announcement comes as Senator John McCain arrived in Benghazi, where he told Al Jazeera's Sue Turton anti-Gaddafi fighters were "my heroes".
