Libyan forces seize last stronghold of Islamic State in Sirte

The last buildings occupied by Islamic State militants in Sirte have fallen into the hands of Libyan fighters, officials said, as anti-IS fighters celebrated in the streets of the final IS stronghold in Libya.

Ahmed Hadiya, the head of the media centre for the anti-IS operation, said: "This is the last major battle, but it is not the end of military operations, nor the declaration of liberation."
