[EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] At least 20 people were killed and scores injured in an Arclight airstrike in Iraq’s northern city of djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
on Sunday.
A warplane struck a marketplace in al-Baaj, 140 kilometers west of Mosul, Iraqi politician Zahed al-Khatoni told Anadolu Agency.
He said the corpse count is expected to rise as many of the injured are in a serious condition.
It remains unclear whether the raid was carried out by an aircraft belonging to the Iraqi air forces or the U.S.-led coalition.
Mosul is currently the subject of a major offensive launched by the Iraqi army in late October to recapture the city from ISIS terrorist group.
U.S.-led coalition warplanes have been carrying out Arclight airstrikes against ISIS positions in the city as part of the offensive.
