Six vehicles which may be carrying Colonel Mummar Gaddafi or other key figures of the toppled Libyan regime crossed the Libyan-Algerian border Friday, Egypt's official news agency MENA reported Saturday.

An Algerian government official told Xinhua by telephone that the report has yet to be confirmed by the authorities.

Libyan military sources were quoted by MENA as saying that six armored Mercedes bullet-proof cars entered Algeria's border town of Ghadames from Libya, without any pursuit from the rebels as the vehicles were well equipped.

The sources pointed out that those vehicles may have important Libyan officials on board, including Gaddafi and his sons. They added that the convoy was escorted by pro-government Libyan troops until it crossed the border.
