| Suicide Bomber Targets Iraqi Forces, Killing Seven |
| 2014-08-31 |
| [AnNahar] A jacket wallah detonated an explosives-rigged vehicle at a checkpoint south of Baghdad on Saturday, killing at least seven security forces members, security and medical officials said. There was no immediate claim for the attack in Yusufiyah, which also maimed 23 people, but suicide kabooms are a hallmark of Sunni krazed killers, including those from powerful jihadist group the Islamic State (IS). Security forces and allied Shiite Death Eaters are battling hard boyz in several areas south of the capital, the southern front in the fight to regain ground lost to an IS-led offensive that overran large areas of Iraq in June. While the turbans' relentless advance has since been checked, Iraqi forces are struggling to push them back, and there is no resolution to the crisis in sight. |
