ISIS regroups to attack a fragmented Lybia

ISIS regroups to attack a fragmented Lybia

by PBS news hour

This article and video discusses how the city of Sirte, once the crowning jewel of the Islamic State in Libya, was attacked once more. In 2015-2016, over a six-month offensive, Libyan security forces worked with U.S. airstrikes to wipe out ISIS combatants from the area. But sleeper cells still lurk in the Sirte desert, and though it no longer controls Libyan territory, ISIS has renewed its attacks there.
