Iraqi soldier, ISIS members killed in clashes in Anbar
[Rudaw] A member of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) was killed and another was injured on Monday in festivities with 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) in Anbar, also resulting in the death of two hard boys, according to the Iraqi Security Media Cell.

A PMF brigade thwarted an attempted attack by suspected ISIS members in the Akashat area of western Anbar, killing two of the gunnies in the festivities that ensued. The group’s members came from "the depths of the Iraqi desert," and launched the attack from four pickup vehicles, according to a statement from the cell.

The statement added that one fighter from the PMF brigade was killed during the incident, and another was injured. The vehicles fled towards the same location they came from, and are being pursued by the forces.

The media cell also announced that the PMF in Baghdad were able to arrest an ISIS administrative official on Monday, sentencing him to life imprisonment.

In its propaganda magazine on Thursday, ISIS claimed to have conducted 24 attacks in Iraq from April 7 to April 13, killing and injuring 31 people.

ISIS on Sunday vowed to seek "Dire Revenge" over the killing of its former leader, Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Quryishi, and called on supporters to make the most of the war in Ukraine to resume attacks in Europe.

ISIS typically sends messages to followers during Ramadan to garner support.
