PMF thwarts an ISIS attack in north Diyala
[SHAFAQ] A force from al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Forces-PMF) thwarted an ISIS attack on al-Azim sub-district in Diyala earlier today, Saturday.

A source told Shafaq News Agency that a group of ISIS Lions of Islam on cycle of violences attempted to reach the villages of al-Azim sub-district from Hemrin area.

The source said that the forces of the PMF fourth brigade engaged with them and prevented them from proceeding.
