...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 killed when an Iraqi Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
targeted their location in southwestern Erbil province on Monday following a fresh operation conducted to eliminate remnants of the group.

Iraqi warplanes launched an airstrike in the mountains of Makhmour in Erbil province on Monday, resulting in the deaths of six suspected ISIS members, Iraq's top military spokesperson Yehia Rasool said in a tweet.

The Peshmerga and Iraqi army conducted a joint operation against ISIS hideouts in Mount Qarachogh on Sunday, an area synonymous with ISIS activity situated in the security vacuum between Erbil and Baghdad.

The aforementioned operation led to the deaths of two ISIS members after caves and tunnels that the organization sheltered in were destroyed.

Rasool said the strikes "came in conjunction with the heroes of the Peshmerga, and this operation is a continuation of the series of joint efforts undertaken by the Iraqi forces to combat the remains of terrorism."
