ISIS militants kill 11 PMF in Saladin attack: security officials
[Rudaw] Islamic State (ISIS) militants launched at least two suicide attacks on a brigade of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), also known as Hashd al-Shaabi, in Samarra, Saladin province, late on Thursday, killing at least 11, according to security officials.
“A suicide terrorist targeted a force, affiliated to Samarra operations, causing the martyrdom of seven members of Hashd al-Shaabi’s 313th Brigade and the injury of three others,” read an earlier statement from the Iraqi Security Media Cell.
The cell later released a second statement, claiming an explosives-laden car, driven by a suicide bomber, attacked the same PMF brigade, killing another four.
The PMF confirmed the first attack in a statement, saying its forces “responded” to an attack without mentioning casualties.
ISIS has not issued a statement claiming either attack, but is known to operate in the disputed area.
The attack comes just days after ISIS militants attacked the Iran-backed PMF in Diyala province, which has also seen an uptick in violence in recent months.
ISIS attacked PMF and Iraqi Army positions in Diyala on December 1, killing one Iraqi soldier and two PMF.
Several Kurdish security forces were recently killed in the Kolajo sub-district of Garmiyan.
