Diyala (Iraqinews.com) ‐ Two Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're 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 the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS) Death Eaters were killed and their cycle of violence was destroyed Wednesday in an ambush set by paramilitary troops in Diyala province, in eastern Iraq.

In a statement, a copy of which was obtained by Alghad Press, the 110th brigade of al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Forces) said its troops, alongside forces of the 23rd brigade, set an ambush in northeastern Diyala to target Islamic State Death Eaters planning to carry out terrorist attacks against civilians and security forces in the province."

"The troops managed to kill two IS Death Eaters and destroyed their motorbike during the operation," according to the statement.

On Tuesday, the security committee of Diyala provincial council warned against growing movements by Islamic State remnants in many uninhabited villages on the borders between Diyala and Salahuddin provinces.
