And this snap suggests the advice is working, as Libyan troops train their rifles on two jihadis.

Throwing their weapons to the ground, the extremists - clad in black - hold their hands above their head as they meekly surrender.

The terror group has been trying to establish a foothold in Libya since Colonel Muammar Gaddafi was overthrown in 2011.

Troops loyal to the UN-backed government have been desperately battling to fend off ISIS followers in recent months.

It recently identified the location of five ISIS snipers in Sirte - allowing a 500lb bomb to be fired at the building.

Libyan field commander Mohamed Durant praised the crack soldiers for the help they were providing.

He said: "We have been facing strong resistance, moving forward house by house. The air strikes are making our lives easier.

"We co-ordinate with the Americans and British. When they are targeting a site we move back, they strike, and we move forward further.

"Together we can complete this mission."
