Iraqi forces retake control of Tikrit Grand Mosque
[Iran Press TV] The Iraqi army, backed by Shia and Sunni volunteers, has raised the Iraqi national flag over the Grand Mosque of Tikrit after recapturing the mosque in the northern city.The forces also retook the city's medicine college on Monday as they continued to gain more grounds against the ISIL Takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed... murderous Moslems. According to the Iraqi military, nearly 40 murderous Moslems with the murderous Moslem group were killed in separate operations in the strategic city. The Iraqi forces also announced that they have raised the national flag on top of Tikrit's main hospital and an administrative building. Tikrit is currently under a complete siege, which has left the ISIL murderous Moslems paralyzed and trapped inside the city. The Iraqi city, which is the birthplace of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, fell to ISIL in June last year. Its recapture is crucial for the Iraqi army in its quest to take control of the country's second-largest city, djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... , situated some 400 kilometers (248 miles) north of Baghdad. ISIL started its campaign of terror in Iraq in early June 2014. The heavily-armed murderous Moslems took control of Mosul before sweeping through parts of the country's Sunni Arab heartland. Iraqi soldiers, police units, Kurdish forces, Shia volunteers and Sunni rustics have succeeded in driving the ISIL Death Eaters out of some areas in Iraq. Posted by: Fred 2015-03-31 |
