Blast kills IS explosives expert east of Salahuddin
2017-02-26
[Iraq News] A local source in Salahuddin Province informed that a blast killed an explosives expert belonging to 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....
group, east of the province, Alsumaria News reported on Saturday.
As an expert I'd say he was overrated.
The source said, "A blast took place inside a workshop for the manufacture of bombs belonging to the Islamic State on the outskirts of the area of Mutaibaja, east of Salahuddin, killing the so-called IS Engineer of Mutaibaja Abu Jaber, along with three of his aides."

"The killed IS member was one of the explosives experts in the hard boy group," the source added on condition of anonymity.

The area of Mutaibaja is one of the unstable areas, due to the presence of hard boy cells belonging to the Islamic State group.
