Iraqi security forces conclude Hamrin Mountain operation against ISIS
[Rudaw] Iraqi security forces on Sunday concluded a two-day inspection and destruction operation against 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) on Hamrin Mountain within Diyala province, a process that included seizure of equipment and closure of tunnels.

"Diyala Operation Command began implementing the second phase of the Hamrin mountain range inspection," the Iraqi defense ministry said on Facebook. According to the statement, Major General Raad Mahmoud supervised the operation.

A statement from Iraqi Security Media Cell published on Facebook said that 18 ISIS hideouts were destroyed, 32 bombs were handled, 11 villages and orchards were cleared and 10 rockets, in addition to other equipment and explosives, were seized.

State media reported that the operation was carried out by the Iraqi army, police, Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF, or Hashd al-Shaabi) with the support of air forces, army aviation and the coalition.

In a statement published by Iraq’s Security Media Cell on Telegram, the PMF said they destroyed Aisha military camp, which they report ISIS used as a shelter in Diyala province. According to the statement, the PMF seized medical supplies and equipment over an estimated 150 kilometers that were cleaned and inspected.

PMF conducted a large security operation on five fronts in the Hamrin mountain range earlier this month, PMF commander for Diyala operations Talib al-Moussawi told state media.
