Tripoli, January 8 (RHC)-- A bomb attack has left six people dead, including a 16-month-old infant, in a northern Libyan town.

Three guards and two other people, who are reportedly the child's relatives, were killed in the Thursday attack at a checkpoint in Ra's Lanouf. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the bombing.

Daesh Takfiri terrorist group attacked Ra's Lanouf and the port of Sidra, another oil hub located 23 kilometers away, on Monday and Tuesday, setting fire to two key oil terminals. The attacks killed at least 10 guards and wounded dozens and the fire was reported to have spread to oil storage tanks on Wednesday. But the terrorists fell short of seizing the towns.
