(CNN) -- The death of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, who was killed Thursday in his hometown of Sirte, Libya, is "an important step" for Libya, but don't expect the fighting to end right away, said CNN senior international correspondent Ben Wedeman. Wedeman, the first Western television reporter to enter and report from inside Libya during the war, talked about how Gadhafi's life ended and what his death means for Libya's future and the civil war. Q: There are reports that Gadhafi was hiding in a hole, possibly a sewer or drainage ditch, like former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein before he was captured. It doesn't seem like Gadhafi's M.O. What do you make of this?

Don't expect Libyan civil war to end after Gadhafi's death, Wedeman says
Saddam Hussein
And for him to end up basically in the same sort of spider hole that @placeholder did seems a bit odd, a bit out of character.

I was in parts of @placeholder where I spoke to lots of people who were opposed to the new rulers of Libya, but not necessarily great supporters of Moammar Gadhafi.

Let's not forget even in @placeholder -- and there are huge differences -- the first few months after the fall of Saddam Hussein were relatively quiet.
