A UN committee of experts stated in a confidential report sent to the UN Security Council that ISIS in Libya is seeking to join human traffickers in southern Libya after being expelled from Sirte in 2016.
According to AFP, the remaining ISIS millitrants, who are made up predominantly of foreigners, are attempting to find a foothold in the far south by sending envoys with "money loads".
The envoys have also attempted to come in contact with other smuggling groups to provide support and seek long-term sources of funding.
The report found that ISIS cells continue to operate in central and southern Libya despite the group's defeat in Sirte.
