A Libyan court has sentenced 23 members of the ISIL (ISIS) group to death.
The accused were taken prisoner in Sirte, after government forces liberated the city in 2016.
The men are the first group of about 320 alleged former ISIL fighters to be tried and sentenced.
Al Jazeera’s Malik Traina reports from the Libyan city of Misrata.
