Islamic State senior member killed in operation, northeastern Diyala
 [Iraq News] An 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... senior member was killed in an operation, launched northeast of Diyala province, on Thursday, the security committee of the provincial council said. "Intelligence of the Counter-Terrorism Service managed to kill the Islamic State’s so-called Diyala State’s head (Wali), known as Abu Ayed, in Hamreen mountains," Sadeq al-Husseini, head of the committee, told AlSumaria News. The holy warrior group, according to Husseini, "lost one of its main leaders in an operation that showed capabilities of the intelligence." Last month, Husseini announced murder of IS Wali in Hamreen mountains, along with five other companions, in two air strikes in Hamreen mountains. Posted by: Fred 2018-01-05 |
