Ageila Saleh, who represents Libya's internationally recognized government, has condemned the attacks by the IS group on Libya's oil terminal of Sidra.
Libya's Alwasat is also reporting that a 15-year-old boy from Tripoli was one of the suicide bombers used by the IS group to attack the oil port of Sidra on January 4.
The IS group's local radio in its Libyan stronghold of Sirte is calling in militants to seize oil from unbelievers and playing jihadi "nasheeds" -- Arabic chants, Libyan analust Mohamed Eljarh says.
These updates come after a spokesman for Libya's Petroleum Facilities Guard said this morning that IS is trying to regroup some kilometers from Sidra.
IS has not launched a new attack (at least not yet) on Sidra in Libya today but this rather nice map tweeted earlier today by AFP shows Libya's oil facilities and where IS has attacked on January 4 and 5.
Fires caused by clashes between IS militants and guards near Libya's biggest oil ports have spread to four oil storage tanks that were still burning today, Petroleum Facilities Guards spokesman Ali al-Hassi has said, Reuters is reporting.
There are three fires at Sidra and one at nearby Ras Lanuf which fire fighters are trying to control.
Hassi said that while the PFG are in control of Sidra and Ras Lanuf, skirmishes are continuing.
At least nine guards have been killed and more than 40 injured, while the PFG have recovered the bodies of 30 IS militants, according to Hassi.
Reuters have tweeted this image of oil storage tanks on fire at Sidra following IS attacks on January 4 and 5.

Qahtani is also said in the biography to have been in Abu Ghraib, the notorious prison outside Baghdad in Iraq.
