Diyala (IraqiNews.com) Two soldiers were maimed in an armed attack against a security checkpoint, north of Diyala, a security source from the province said on Friday.

Speaking to AlSumaria News, the source said "a joint security checkpoint at the outskirts of Hawi al-Udhaim region saw, last night, an armed attack by 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....
, leaving two soldiers injured."

The situation, according to the source, is under control as the whole region was combed to follow the holy warriors.
