| Aswat al-Iraq: Multi-National Force (MNF) troops on Friday detained a suspect and defused three improvised explosive devices in the district of al-Saadiya, northern Diala, a security source in the province said. "MNF soldiers, received tip-offs from citizens, arrested a suspected gunman in the village of Qorat Taba, central Saadiya, (30 km) south of Khanaqin," the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. Khanaqin, one of the districts subject to dispute between the central government in Baghdad and the semi-autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), lies 155 km northeast of Baaquba. "The MNF soldiers also managed to dismantle three IEDs without incident," the source added. |
