Description Between 150-200 were killed over four days of fighting (11th-14th August) between Islamic State militants and local gunmen from the Firjan tribe in Sirte. Clashes erupted after the IS assassinated an imam from the influential Al-Farjan tribe at the start of the week. It is reported that IS militants have since been "massacring people, even killing people in their homes". AP reported that Libya's Islamic State affiliate seized control of a neighborhood in the central city of Sirte.
