Suicide bombers stormed the head offices of Libya's electoral commission in Tripoli on Wednesday, killing at least 12 people and setting fire to the building in an attack claimed by the Islamic State militant group. Since December, the electoral commission has registered nearly one million new voters across Libya, though no date has been set for polls. Though security across Libya remains volatile, violence in the capital has recently been limited to localized clashes between armed groups. "A suicide bomber blew up himself inside the commission and the others set a part of the building on fire." Militants, including at least two suicide bombers, stormed the head offices of Libya's electoral commission in Tripoli on Wednesday.
