Meet Fighters Battling ISIS in Benghazi | Benghazi in Crisis | FRONTLINE

Nearly five years after Muammar Qaddafi’s ouster, Libya is ISIS’s biggest base outside Syria and Iraq — and as a new FRONTLINE documentary shows, the fight against the terror group there is intensifying.

In this excerpt from “Benghazi in Crisis,” journalist Feras Kilani films with a militia that calls itself the Benghazi anti-terrorism unit as it fights a key battle for Sabri district, a central part of the city near Benghazi’s port.
