Anbar (IraqiNews.com) A civilian was killed, while two others were maimed as a landmine, from the remnants of war against 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....
, went kaboom!, west of Anbar, a security source said on Sunday.

In remarks to BasNews website, the source from Anbar Operations Command, said "a landmine from the remnants of war against Islamic State, went off in an agricultural land in Rutba, west of Anbar, as the farmers were ploughing the land. A civilian was killed, while two others were maimed."

Security troops, according to the source, who preferred anonymity, "rushed to the accident spot and combed the region fearing further blasts."

The landmines, planted by the Death Eaters, "still exist due to the difficulty to reach the bombs due to shortage of explosive detectors," the source added.
