2019-04-17
Anbar (IraqiNews.com) ‐ Five Iraqi soldiers were maimed Tuesday in a kaboom in Fallujah city, west of Anbar province, a security source was quoted as saying.

"A roadside kaboom planted 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....
gunnies went off while an army patrol was passing by al-Nuaimia district in Fallujah,
... the City of Mosques, which might have somthing to do with why it's not called Center of Prosperity or a really nice place to raise your kids...
leaving five soldiers maimed," the source told Almaalomah news website.

"The soldiers were moved to a nearby hospital for treatment with some of them suffering severe wounds," added the source.

Security forces cordoned off the blast site and started to search for any other explosives at the scene, the source noted.

No group has so far grabbed credit for the attack, but the Islamic State (IS) krazed killer group, in most cases, is responsible for attacks targeting crowded areas, including markets, cafes and mosques across Iraq.
