Salahuddin (IraqiNews.com) ‐ Iraqi pro-government forces destroyed on Sunday three hideouts and two tunnels of 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.

in northwestern Salahuddin province.

"A joint force from al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Forces) and Salahuddin Operations Command launched a wide-scale military operation in 30 villages, northwest of Salahuddin, managing to destroy three hideouts and two tunnels that were used by Islamic State Death Eaters," Almaalomah news website quoted the paramilitary force of al-Hashd al-Shaabi as saying.

"The troops also detonated 70 explosive charges," the force said, adding that two of its fighters were maimed when a booby-trapped house went kaboom!.
