Major General Hashem Sitayi, the Peshmerga commander in Shingal, told Rudaw that following an intense fight on Sunday morning Peshmerga forces retook Gabara village to the west of Sinjar City.
He added that the Peshmerga destroyed four ISIS military vehicles and 30 ISIS corpses were strewn over the ground.
