| [AnNahar] Twenty-five fighters from the 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.... group were killed when a powerful blast rocked an explosives manufacturing plant in Syria's eastern Deir Ezzor province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor said Wednesday. It was not immediately clear whether the kaboom was accidental or the result of a missile strike, the Britannia-based Observatory said. "A strong kaboom took place this evening in an IS explosives factory in the town of Al--Mayadeen in the province of Deir Ezzor," the monitoring group said. "Several other kabooms followed, shaking the whole town. Twenty-five IS fighters were killed, around 20 others were maimed," it added. The Islamic State group, which imposes a harsh interpretation of Islamic law, controls most of the oil province of Deir Ezzor, which borders Iraq. But government forces still hold parts of the lovely provincial capital and small pockets of areas of less strategic significance. |
