2019-02-19
Anbar (IraqiNews.com) ‐ An Iraqi child was killed and two of his family members were maimed Monday in a landmine kaboom in the western province of Anbar, a security source was quoted as saying.

"A landmine left by 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....
turbans went off when a family was gathering desert truffles in Haditha district, west of Anbar," the source told the Arabic-language Almaalomah news website.

"The kaboom left a child dead and two of his family members maimed," the source added.

According to the source, the security forces rushed to the blast site and cordoned it off to make sure that there are no more landmines.
