Four ISIS members arrested near Erbil: Coalition

[Rudaw] A number of Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) members were arrested near the capital of the Kurdistan Region, the US-led Coalition said on Tuesday as the group remains a threat to the security and stability of Iraq and the Region.

In a series of operations, the US-led coalition with the Iraqi Counter Terrorism Directorate (CTD) arrested four ISIS members near Erbil, the Coalition’s Special Operations Joint Task Force-Levant announced in a tweet.

"These operations reduce ISIS’s [ISIS] ability to coordinate movements and harass the people of Iraq," it added, without disclosing further information about the detained members.

Iraqi forces have not yet commented on the arrests.
