Bomb explosion kills 1, injures 6 near Tuz Khurmatu
|
[Rudaw] A roadside explosion killed a woman and injured 6 others from a single family who were en route to a village near the border of Tuz Khurmatu on Friday, according to a local official.
Hassan Zain al-Abidin, the mayor of Tuz Khurmatu, told Rudaw that "the bomb was concealed within a jerry can. The bomb went kaboom! as the family was returning from Tuz Khurmatu to the village of Zanjali. The security forces are presently investigating at the scene of the incident."
"The woman who was killed was 40 years old and the mother of four children. Her brother, children and spouse were maimed and are now being treated at Komari Hospital in Tuz Khurmatu," Abidin said.
The blast was carried out by 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), according to the mayor of Tuz Khurmatu, given the increased activity of ISIS gunnies near the border. The villagers of Zanjali had been warned to evacuate due to the threat of attack by ISIS. He said they did not heed the warnings and, unfortunately, this incident happened as a result.
A lack of coordination between security forces in areas disputed between Erbil and Baghdad - largely in Salahaddin, Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
and Diyala provinces - has created a security vacuum that ISIS sleeper cells exploit to carry out ambushes, attacks and kidnappings.
Three farmers were kidnapped near Tuz Khurmatu earlier in March by ISIS
Abidin said that the kidnapped were Sunni Arabs and residents of Hlewa village, located ten kilometers west of Tuz Khurmatu.
ISIS gunnies were killed in a ground and air operation between Kurdish Peshmerga and French forces in areas between the Diyala districts of Kifri and Tuz Khurmatu in June. The offensive was "in Dire Revenge" for the deaths of four Peshmerga troops in ISIS attacks
