Iraq says seven ‘terrorists’ killed in earlier airstrike
[Rudaw] At least seven "terrorists" were killed in an earlier Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
between the northern provinces of Kirkuk and Salahaddin, Iraqi security forces said on Sunday.

An Iraqi airstrike on Friday targeted suspected 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) positions in the Zarka area between Salahaddin and Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
the latest as Baghdad continues cracking down on jihadist cells, particularly in the country’s rural areas in the north and center.

"7 bodies of terrorists, including those wearing boom belts, in addition to various weapons, logistical materials, devices, criminal evidence, and other materials" were found as security forces arrived at the site on Sunday to inspect the aftermath of the strike, Iraq’s Security Media Cell said in a statement.
