CAIRO (Reuters) - Islamic State claimed responsibility on Thursday for two car bomb explosions that targeted a military unit belonging to the eastern forces of the Libyan National Army (LNA) in Derna earlier this week, the group's Al-Nabaa newspaper said.

At least 18 people were wounded in the explosions in the eastern coastal city, a medical source and residents told Reuters.
