| Diyala (IraqiNews.com) A Soldier was injured as an IED targeted an army patrol at a liberated village, northeast of Diyala, a local source from the province was quoted saying. “A bomb, placed on the side of an agricultural road at the outskirts of Rabei’a village, near al-Saadiya town, northeast of Baqubah, exploded on Wednesday morning, targeting an army patrol,” the source told AlSumaria News, adding that a soldier was wounded. “Security troops cordoned off the blast spot and started combing the region,” the source, who preferred anonymity, said. Attacks launched by Islamic State militants against security troops, the pro-government forces and civilians surged over the past few weeks in northeast of Diyala, which urge the Iraqi forces to prevent the militants infiltration between Salahuddin and Kirkuk provinces, especially the regions stretching along Hamreen mountains and Al-Azeem town. |
