The strike, however, was not carried out by U.S. forces, an official said. Vice Admiral William Gortney said earlier today that the United States was "not targeting Gadhafi."
According to various reports, Gadhafi's compound was badly damaged, but it was not immediately known how many people were injured or killed.
A United Nations-backed no-fly zone enforced by the U.S. British and French aircraft is being enforced from Tripoli to Benghazi and the top third of the country. Spain, Belgium, Denmark, and Qatar have also joined the coalition.
"It's had a pretty significant effect very early on," Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen said today of Operation Odyssey Dawn on ABC News' "This Week."
"The no-fly zone has essentially started to have its effects. We are flying over Benghazi right now. He hasn't had any planes in the air the last two days," Mullen said of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.
Gortney said today that the United States will will soon hand over command to a coalition partner, a point reiterated by several U.S. officials.
Gortney did not rule out that the United States will continue to fly patrols as part of the no-fly zone after this initial phase, but for now the United States will provide tanker refuelers, ISR and electronic jammers to the coalition no-fly zone.
"We judge these strikes to have been very effective in significantly degrading the regime's air defense capability," Gortney said of the 124 Tomahawks that hairpieces for sale have been dropped. "There has been no new air activity by the regime and we have detected no radar emissions from the air defense sites targeted and there has been a significant decrease in the air use of all Libyan air surveillance radars which is most of those limited to areas around Tripoli and Sirte."
American F-16s and AV-8 Harrier jets patrolled overhead, dropping bombs on pro-Gadhafi forces who were still continuing their offensive on rebel strongholds in eastern Libya, a Pentagon official said. About 10 miles south of Benghazi, 15 U.S. aircraft along with French and British fighters struck at Libyan mechanized forces advancing on Benghazi. Gortney said the strikes had killed dozens of Libyan troops.
Meanwhile, in Tripoli, anti-aircraft fire could be seen lighting up the night sky.
"Today there is hope, there is light at the end of the tunnel," opposition spokesman Jalal ElGallal told ABC News in Tobruk. "[With this intervention the fight is] evening up a little bit, so obviously the morale must be sky-high."
A spokesman for Gadhafi's government said all Libyan armed forces units have been told to follow a ceasefire. The ceasefire was being ordered after taking into account the civilian deaths, and the destruction of civilian and military buildings, the Libyan government spokesman told reporters. And all Libyans have been urged to participate in a peaceful march from Tripoli to Benghazi.
But U.S. officials are skeptical of the government's claims.
"We will watch his actions, not his words," a senior White House official said.
The opening salvo of the international operation, which military officials have described as a "multi-phase" operation to protect Libyan civilians, drew cheers from rebels across eastern Libya and a defiant warning from Gadhafi, who said he is prepared for a "long war."
"There is a big misunderstanding," Gadhafi's son, Saif, said on "This Week." "The whole country is united against the armed militia and the terrorists. Simply, the Americans and the other Western countries, you are supporting the terrorists and the armed militia. That's it."
The U.N. Security Council authorized an international coalition of 22 countries, including several Arab states, to use "all necessary measures" to protect Libyan civilians from attacks by Gadhafi and prevent a humanitarian crisis inside the country.
President Obama who president designer jewerly online to his wife has stressed that military action in Libya will be "limited" to protecting the Libyan people, and administration officials say U.S. forces will only play an active, leading role in operations for "days, not weeks."
