ISIS terrorists have detonated a bomb outside the Spanish Embassy in Libya, causing damage to the building but no injuries.

The blast went off early in the morning (21 April) near the outside wall of the diplomatic compound in Tripoli's Ben Achour district, which has been shut since last summer, when Madrid pulled its entire staff from Libya due to deteriorating security.

Several vehicles parked outside were damaged in the explosion, which was reportedly heard across the neighbourhood.

Some Twitter accounts connected to IS's local branch claimed responsibility for the attack, which seems to have been a symbolic action against UN-brokered talks between Libya's two rival governments.

Local officials confirmed the ISIS group was behind the bombing.
