Kurdish forces report new gains against ISIS near Hasakah
2015-09-25
[ARA] Kurdish forces of the People's Protection Units (YPG) reported progress against murderous Moslem fighters of the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) in the northeastern Syrian province of Hasakah, military sources said on Wednesday.

The YPG regained the villages of Tananir and Umm Hajar in the vicinity of Tel Brak town in the eastern countryside of Hasakah.

Speaking to ARA News, YPG front man Sipan Derki said: "Our forces regained the two villages after fierce festivities with ISIS terrorists."

ISIS murderous Moslems had evacuated their headquarters in Tananir and Umm Hajar amid intensive shelling by the Kurdish forces.

"At least seven bad boyz were potted and dozens maimed during the festivities," Derki said. "Our (YPG) fighters have also destroyed an ISIS vehicle and seized a large deal of ammunition."

Two Kurdish fighters were maimed in Wednesday's festivities, according to the source.

In the meantime, warplanes of the U.S.-led international coalition targeted ISIS tactical units in the vicinity of al-Hawl town near the border with Iraq.

"The U.S.-led forces hit ISIS tactical units near al-Hawl with three Arclight airstrikes, destroying two vehicles and killing several murderous Moslems," media activist Muhammad al-Ahmed told ARA News in Hasakah.

The coalition has also targeted ISIS fighting positions on the outskirts of Shaddadi town south of Hasakah with several Arclight airstrikes on Wednesday.

"The U.S.-led coalition bombed three ISIS targets near Shaddadi, killing and injuring at least 15 murderous Moslems," the source reported.
