Thirteen militants arrested in security operation in Kirkuk: Official
2018-07-20
Kirkuk (IraqiNews.com) Thirteen myrmidons, who are members of a terrorist cell that infiltrated into Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
have been jugged
Drop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un!
, a security official from the province said adding that security services are working on following the terrorist in the province.

In remarks to media channels on Thursday, Maj. Gen. Maan al-Saadi said, "troops of the Counter-Terrorism Service, during an operation, managed to arrest a cell composed of 13 bully boyz who had sneaked into Kirkuk. After the arrests, terrorist attacks were carried out last night. We have the photo of one of the perpetrators and will arrest him."

Intelligence services of CTS and other security services in the province "follow whoever tries to destabilize the security in Kirkuk. The thirteen bully boyz were arrested in accordance with judicial warrants."

In related news, a security source told AlSumaria News that "the arrested are affiliated to 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....
and that reaching them would weaken the dormant cells of the group that takes advantage of attacks to affect the security in Kirkuk."
