Al-Giza al-Bahriya

Disease and mines rule in Libya's former ISIL bastion

In the district of Al-Giza al-Bahriya in Libya's Sirte, the sea breeze mingles with the stench of corpses decomposing under the rubble.

The coastal neighborhood was the last part of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant's (ISIL) north African bastion to fall to unity government-allied forces on Dec. 5 after nearly seven months of fighting.
