Iraqi airstrikes destroy two Islamic State bomb factories
[UPI] Iraq's Ministry of Defense said Arclight airstrikes destroyed two 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....
explosive factories and killed dozens of gunnies east of djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
The Islamic State, also known as ISIS, ISIS and ISIS, used the factory to make boom-mobiles.

"Today, army aviation conducted an Arclight airstrike on Wadi Akab area in the eastern coast of the city of Mosul," the Defense Ministry said in a statement Tuesday. "The aerial bombing resulted in the destruction of two explosives factories and killing of dozens of the ISIS members."

Iraqi security forces, aided by the Kurdish Peshmerga, Shiite militias and a U.S.-led international coalition, engaged in a ground offensive on Oct. 17 to capture Mosul -- Iraq's second-largest city -- away from Islamic State control.

In Mosul's al-Zahra neighborhood, Iraqi security forces fired gunshots into the air in order to disperse hundreds of civilians who rushed a food distribution point. One soldier was seen beating a woman who was attempting to acquire food, Rudaw reported.
