Kurdish villages in Makhmour remain empty in fear of ISIS activities
[Rudaw] A large number of Kurdish inhabited villages situated in Makhmour have remained abandoned for the past five years in fear of 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) sleeper cell activities.

Villages in the open terrains of Makhmour's Qaraj region and djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
province are deserted.

"There are 38 villages located in the Qaraj area. They are empty. One single Arab inhabited [village] is more populated than all of the Kurdish inhabited villages combined. They are almost entirely empty," villager Lawko Ali told Rudaw’s Hiwa Husaamadin on Saturday.

"There are a handful of Kurdish villages remaining populated. Those who have opted to stay are busy with farming and raising livestock. Due to a security vacuum in this region, Kurdish villagers have found it difficult to stay," Abdullah Tahir, head of the Kurdistan Democratic Party office in Makhmour said.

In its propaganda magazine on Thursday, ISIS claimed to have conducted 12 attacks in Iraq from May 11 to May 19, killing and injuring 26 people.
