Unity govt forces fight ISIS group militants

Libya's pro-government forces fighting to dislodge the Islamic State group from its key bastion of Sirte seized the city port on Friday, as a Libyan spokesman said the group's leaders have fled the city to the open desert south of Sirte. Ahmed Hadiya told The Associated Press on Friday that the offensive to capture the Mediterranean city is nearing its "final stage" and that IS fighters have hunkered down inside a sprawling convention center for the final showdown.
