Iraqi anti-ISIS airstrike kills four in Kirkuk
|
[IsraelTimes] At least four suspected members of 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) were killed on Saturday in an Iraqi Arclight airstrike
 ...KABOOM! ...
in Kirkuk province, the army said.
"Through intensive monitoring by the Targeting Cell of the Joint Operations Command over the past two consecutive days, the location of a terrorist group of four members was identified in the Hamrin Mountains within the Kirkuk Operations Command sector," read a statement from the Iraqi Joint Operations Command.
"Our courageous Air Force Falcons carried out a severe strike with F-16 aircraft, targeting this terrorist group. The strike resulted in the killing of the group members and the destruction of their hideout," it added.
The strike also destroyed weapons, ammunition, logistic supplies, and explosives, according to the statement.
The operation in territories disputed between federal Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government is the latest in an ongoing effort to rid the country of ISIS cells in areas where a security vacuum allows them to operate.
Last month, the Iraqi army announced that over 100 ISIS members have been killed since the beginning of the year.
