Chief of Military Intelligence of the Central Region, Ismail Shukri, said Thursday that ISIS fugitives are moving freely in southern Sirte where Dignity Operation forces are positioned.

Shukri told Alnabaa TV that ISIS militants have found a safe-haven in Zillah town, saying Dignity Operation are obstructing Al-Bonyan Al-Marsoos hunting for ISIS fugitives in southern Sirte by providing safe corridors for them.

Earlier in June, Dignity Operation and ISIS militants launched simultaneous attacks on Sirte, but they were repelled by Al-Bonyan Al-Marsoos forces. Dignity Operation launched another failed attack on the city a month later.
