By Libya Herald reporter.

Tripoli, 23 April 2015:

Violent clashes between Misrata’s Battalion 166 and fighters belonging to the Islamic State (IS) have . . .[restrict]continued for the fifth day running.

A spokesman for the Battalion 166, Khaled Abujazia, said that fighting involving heavy artillery was taking place at a number of downtown locations in Qaddafi’s former hometown and that two members of the battalion had been killed and five others wounded as it tried to dislodge the Islamists from positions held by them.

These include the Ouagadougou Hall, centrepiece of Qaddafi’s makeover of Sirte as a base for African Union and other pan-African gatherings, and the University of Sirte. Both are being bombarded by the battalion.
