(ISIL) have fired a volley of rockets at a revered Shia shrine in the Iraqi city of Samarra, and injured several people.

According to reports on Monday, at least three rockets fired by the Takfiris hit the shrine complex as the snuffies continue waging acts of violence and terrorism in the Arab country.

It is said that at least nine innocent Iraqi citizens suffered injuries in the terrorist attack.

Following the attack, the deputy head of the Samarra municipal council says the shells struck a reception area near the gate of the holy shrine.

Reports also said that the Iraqi Air Force responded to the attack and destroyed the site from where the rockets were launched.

The turban attacks came just two days after government forces cleared snuffies out of an area near Samarra.

The city, located nearly 120 kilometers (74 miles) north of Storied Baghdad, is home to the holy shrines of two Shia Imams and a major pilgrimage site visited by tens of millions of Mohammedans annually despite the tense security situation in the area.

Over the past days, Iraqi armed forces have been engaged in fierce festivities with the terrorists, who have threatened to take their acts of violence to other Iraqi cities, including the capital, Storied Baghdad. However,
if you can't say something nice about a person some juicy gossip will go well...
the ISIL's advance has been slowed down as Iraqi military and volunteer forces have begun engaging them on several fronts.

Senior Mohammedan holy mans have condemned the ISIL atrocities, including mass executions and rape.

#2  The ISIS/ISIL has repor also claimed it will destroy the Kaaba in Mecca after they capture Saudi Arabia.

Besides Jordan + the KSA, ISIS' five-year plan of conquest [AMAP by Year 2020] includes taking over WEST AFRICA, INDONESIA, ISRAEL, IRAN, + INDIA. Large parts of Central-East Africa, Caucasus + Central Asia are also depicted on their new map.
