If Libya did not have enough trouble with warring factions nearly decimating its oil production, ISIS inside Libya is now trying to gain access to the country’s oil wells.
France’s defense minister, Jean-Yves Le Driean, told RTL radio in France that the terrorist group has begun moving inland from Sirte.
“They are in Sirte, their territory extends 250 km [155 miles] along the coast, but they are starting to penetrate the interior and to be tempted by access to oil wells and reserves,” Le Drian told RTL radio.
