Mirror: SAS spearhead coalition offensive to halt Islamic State oil snatches in Libya
The aim is to halt the advance of 5,000 extremists who have seized more than a dozen major oil fields, boosting their war coffers
Crack SAS troops are in Libya preparing for the arrival of around 1,000 British infantrymen to be sent against ISIS there in early 2016.
Special Forces including military close observation experts from the Special Reconnaissance Regiment are spearheading a major coalition offensive against the terror network.
The operation will involve around 6,000 American and European soldiers and marines - led by Italian forces and supported mainly by Britain and France.
WNU Editor: This deployment is an admission that the Islamic State is winning in Libya.
