| [Iraq News] Iraqi government troops consummated Monday the recapture of a district near central djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... ’s Old City which it invaded Saturday. The Joint Operations Command said in a statement that the army’s elite Counter-Terrorism Forces fully retook Mosul al-Jadida (New Mosul), a district adjacent to the Old City. The latter is a densely-populated neighborhood and an outstanding target of operations against 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.... Government forces swept through Mosul al-Jadida’s neighborhoods since Saturday, engaging in ferocious fights with IS bad boys. Iraqi generals were quoted earlier on Monday saying three soldiers were killed in IS attacks, while troops killed at least 20 bad boys. Iraqi generals have labeled Old Mosul as decisive in realizing victory against IS in western Mosul. Iraqi government forces recaptured eastern Mosul from Islamic State on january 24th after three months of battles, and recently said they became in control of 30 percent of western Mosul since another offensive launched in February. |
