AlSumaria News quoted the source as saying that “IS member killed three of his companions in the vicinity of Mutaibija, in east of Salahuddin after taking drugs, called pink pills.”

“The accident is the second of its kind this month,” the source, who preferred anonymity, said. “The pink pills are widely spread among IS fighters. The pills can make the militants fearless, thus they are highly used ahead of any armed attack.”

Occasional attacks have been witnessed in Mutaibija by Islamic State against government and paramilitary troops deployments since Iraqi forces, backed by a U.S.-led coalition and PMUs, launched a major offensive to retake areas occupied by IS since 2014,
