The Islamic State Consolidates Its Territory In Libya



Voice Herald: Up to 3000 Islamic State fighters in Libya — UN experts

The Libyan city of Sirte is the first to fall to IS outside Iraq and Syria with the armed Islamist group profiting from the chaos that has followed the fall of Moamer Kadhafi.

The group has also stopped insisting Muslims travel to Syria to join its caliphate and is instead suggesting recruits go to Libya instead.

The European Union is concerned that the southern islands are only a couple hundred miles from Libya.

Over the past year, ISIS has been deepening its presence in Sirte, a city along Libya's northwestern Mediterranean coast. Tunisia closed its border with Libya for two weeks after an attack on a bus in which 12 presidential security officers were killed on November 24.

ISIS is on the run! Unfortunately we cannot run fast enough to catch them.
