TOPSHOTS Members of the pro-government Libyan forces fire towards Islamist militiamen during a attack on districts held by the militias on November 3, 2014 around the port of eastern Libya's restive city of Benghazi. The aim of the offensive, launched by forces loyal to retired general Khalifa Haftar backed by army units, was to "clear the zone of armed Islamist groups", said Colonel Ahmed al-Mesmari, armed forces general staff spokesman.
