Four people were killed and 21 wounded in Libya on Sunday in a suicide attack that has been claimed by Daesh (ISIS), AFP reported. 

The explosion happened east of the city Misrata, at the Saddada checkpoint where Daesh claims a member detonated a vehicle. The extremist group said Sudanese volunteer Abu Dujana carried out the attack for the militants' Tripoli branch.

The Tripolitania branch was responsible for carrying out the mass executions on 21 Coptic Christians in February. Daesh has established branches in all three of Libya's regions, separated by factions competing for government power.
