ISIL claims responsibility for suicide bombing in Misrata, declares war against Libya Dawn Forces

A suicide bomber killed 5 and wounded 7 in a checkpoint near Misrata, early morning on Sunday. ISIL later confirmed and claimed that the attack was from them, and the suicide bomber was Tunisian national, Abu Wahib Al Tunsi, via twitter.

Evem though  the attack was made on busy route, huge amount of casualties were avoided as the attack was done a little after 4 am. Aside from claiming responsibility for the suicide attack, ISIS also tweeted a warning to Libya Dawn saying that they are waging a war against them, and it is "in order to cleanse the land of their filth".

IS, which is from Misrata, has taken its hold on Tripoli, Sirte, and in Darna, where they have set up their own government and parliament pushing the internationally recognized government to Tobruk.

The attack in the checkpoint in Misrata wasn't the first attack from IS, since they reportedly waged 5 attacks in the same area, in the last 8 weeks. These attacks injured a total of 25 people, and killed 7. There were also attacks in some cities in Bengazi and in Tripoli, and caused 50 deaths. Gunmen claiming they're from IS also reportedly attacked Corinthia Hotel and killed 10, aside from that there were also attacks in Tajoura district weeks ago.

Three days before the attack, IS also reportedly siezed an airport in Sirte which serves them civil and military use.

Libya Prime Minister Khalifa Ghwell said that they are in support of the army and other forces who are fighting against IS, "We will support all army, police and revolutionary forces to fight and chase those apostates who have come to Libya claiming they are representing Islam,"

"Islam disowns them." He said.

Also, IS recently showed photographs of them capturing the water supply network that was deviced by Gaddafi, called the "Great man-made river", which was created to provide fresh water to Tripoli, Benghazi, and Sirte. The IS capture of it now causes  fear to many, that the extremist group might contaminate the water.

United Nations is currently finding a way to make a deal between the governments that control Libya, through the a national unity government.
