 Salahuddin (IraqiNews.com) The pro-government paramilitary troops have run into a mass grave, likely to be for 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.... members in al-Fatha region, north of Salahuddin province. In a statement, Wanas al-Jabbara, commander of the 88th brigade of al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Forces) said "during wide-scale operations by out troops, a mass grave containing several victims was found in al-Fatha region." The bodies, according to Jabbara, "maintained some of its features due to the low temperatures. Beards and heavy hair of the victims can be distinguished. It seems that most of them are Iraqi nationals." "Fatha region has been uninhabited since August 2014," he said, adding that weapons and boom belts were found along with bodies. "Apparently, they were killed during liberation offensives in Hawija." Posted by: trailing wife 2018-03-28 |
