Libyan Journalist Killed

The Libyan branch of the Islamic State (IS) jihadist group today claimed to have killed two Tunisian journalists who went missing in September. It was not immediately possible to verify the claim.

Gunmen shot dead a newspaper editor who was an outspoken critic of Islamists in Libya's volatile east on Monday, in a targeted killing that came hours after he warned the Islamist-led parliament of a civil war if it didn't bow to widespread demands to disband and allow early elections.
