[ARA] Subsequent to festivities with Death Eaters of 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 Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS), Kurdish forces regained three new villages in the northeastern Syrian province of Hasakah on Sunday.

Kurdish fighters of the People's Protection Units (YPG), supported by female fighters of the Women's Protection Units (YPJ), have regained three villages near Mount Abdulaziz in the western countryside of Hasakah.

The YPG Media Center said that at least 27 ISIS Death Eaters were killed during the festivities on Sunday.

"Our forces continued their progress against the Lions of Islam in Hasakah province. We have seized a large deal of weapons and ammunition during the anti-ISIS operations in Mount Abdulaziz and the surrounding villages," a member of the YPG Media Center told ARA News in Hasakah.

Moreover, the Kurdish forces have taken six ISIS Death Eaters as hostages after the festivities.

Also on Sunday, the U.S.-led coalition forces bombed ISIS strongholds in the Hiwej village in the eastern countryside of Hasakah.

"The strikes targeted an ISIS weapon store," media activist Dilovan Muhammad reported.

The Death Eaters had attacked Kurdish headquarters near Mount Abdulaziz on Friday. Kurdish fighters of the People's Protection Units (YPG) subsequently evacuated their centers in what they called a "strategic withdrawal".

"On Saturday, the YPG forces besieged ISIS Death Eaters near Mount Abdulaziz and killed dozens of Lions of Islam and destroyed several vehicles," a front man for the YPG Media Center told ARA News.
