| NINEWA, July 26 (VOI) – A policeman was killed by gunmen fire in clashes in the western part of Mosul city on Saturday, a police source in Ninewa province said. "The clashes erupted between a police patrol and gunmen in the area of al-Yarmuk, western Mosul. The body of the policeman was removed to a mortuary in the city," the source, who asked for anonymity out of security concerns, told Aswat al-Iraq – Voices of Iraq – (VOI). Since May 10, Ninewa has witnessed two security operations codenamed Zaeer al-al-Assad (Lion's Roar) and Umm al-Rabiain (Mother of Two Springs) to track down gunmen and impose order and law in the troubled city. |
