Speaking to AlSumaria News, the source said, “one of the personnel of Samarra Operations Command at a checkpoint opened fire in the evening against a suicide attacker who tried to approach Dijla weapon stash, northwest of Samarra, which caused his immediate death.”

“Security troops took precautionary measures fearing similar attacks,” the source, who preferred anonymity, added.
