Washington slaps sanctions on senior ISIS operative in Libya, Sinai

The US on Saturday imposed sanctions on six senior ISIS terrorists. One of them is Salmi Salama Sulayman Ammar, who has been operating in North Africa since 2015 after being sent by ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi from Syria to the Sinai Peninsula and Libya. According to US reports, Ammar sent hundreds of millions of dollars from Libya to the Sinai to encourage terrorist attacks against Egypt and Israel.
