The US military says it has carried out an airstrike against the Islamic State group in Libya, the latest in a series of airstrikes by the US in the North African country over the past ten days.
Monday's statement by US Africa Command says seven militants were killed in the strike, launched a day earlier in southwest Libya.
US Army Maj. Gen. William Gayler, director of operations at the command, says the airstrike aimed at "disrupting the terrorists' planning, training, and activities."
