|
[NRTtv] SULAIMANI — Iraq’s Federal Investigation and Intelligence Agency said on Friday (February 5) that six Islamic State (ISIS) militants were arrested during raids on their hideouts in Kirkuk governorate’s Daquq and Hawija districts.
Weapons and equipment were seized from the locations.
On Thursday, two ISIS militants were arrested in coordination with the security forces in Sulaimani governorate and two others was arrested in Baghdad’s Yusufiya and Diyala’s Azim districts, the federal Counterterrorism Service tweeted.
The Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) also said that its fighters killed two ISIS leaders on Karma Island in Anbar governorate’s Fallujah district.
In December 2017, the Iraqi Security Forces, in cooperation with the Peshmerga and the PMF and aided by Coalition airstrikes, declared victory over ISIS. Since then, the militant group has resorted to guerrilla hit-and-run tactics and remains a potent threat in some parts of the country.
The Popular Mobilization Units (Hashd al-Sha’abi) announced on Thursday, the killing of what it called the Islamic State
 ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS/ISIS/IS/ISIS) emir of northern Baghdad.
The Popular Mobilization Units said, as published by the official Iraqi News Agency (INA), that the Operations Command of East Anbar Governorate managed to kill Islamic State leaders north of the Fallujah District.
The statement said that "one of the snuffies is the emir of northern Baghdad and al-Karma, called Muhannad Ahmad Habib, and the other terrorist is Omar Abdel-Kassar, a member of the organization."
The Iraqi government forces, including the Popular Mobilization Units, are currently conducting extensive security operations against the terrorist organization, the frequency of which has increased after two terrorist bombings in the center of the capital, Baghdad, which killed and maimed dozens.
