Bomb kills 10 west of ISIS's besieged Libyan stronghold

TRIPOLI- A suicide car bomber hit a Libyan police station west of the besieged ISIS stronghold of Sirte on Thursday, killing 10 people and wounding seven, officials said.

 

The attack at Abu Grain, on the coast road some 85 miles west of Sirte, showed that the militants, although on the back foot in the battle for Sirte, can still strike outside the city.

 

Brigades from Misrata are leading the campaign to recapture Sirte and have engaged in fire fights with ISIS since pushing to the edge of the city centre last week.
