Ninevah: Iraqi airstrike kills three ISIS suspects
[Rudaw] Three Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
 (ISIS) suspects, including two leaders, were killed in an Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
 south of the ancient city of Hatra, Iraqi Security Media Cell announced on Saturday.

"In response to the recent cowardly, treacherous terrorist activities, and through field follow-up and intensification of intelligence efforts of the Federal Intelligence and Investigation Agency in the Ministry of Interior, as well as the Joint Operations Command, two leaders of the ISIS terrorist gang were followed up," Iraq's Security Media Cell said in a tweet.

"The terrorist gangs of ISIS, namely the terrorist named Abu Issam, who holds the position of the so-called official of the Tigris sector, and the criminal terrorist Abu Mahmoud, were riding a pickup truck and wearing two boom belts, accompanied by a third terrorist," noted the statement, as it described who the members were.

The air force was provided with the information, which in turn directed a precise airstrike on their location south of Hatra between the districts of Hawija and Baiji, killing the members and destroying the vehicle.

The attack come a day after a deadly ISIS attack on an Iraqi base in Diyala province that killed 11 soldiers. The terror group grabbed credit for the attack.

In its propaganda magazine on Thursday, ISIS claimed to have conducted 6 attacks in Iraq from January 13 to January 19, killing and injuring 17 people.
