Suicide bomber dies in Diyala
2017-10-05
Baqubah (IraqiNews.com) Diyala police service said Wednesday security forces killed a suicide bomber before he carried out an attack on civilians.

Ghaleb al-Attiya, media official at the province’s police department, told Alsumaria News that a police force killed a suicide bomber after trapping him inside a vehicle he was riding at al-Kawthar, east of Baqubah.

Meanwhile, Alsumaria News quoted a local source saying that Mutaibija, an Islamic State militancy hotspot on the borders between Diyala and Salahuddin, has witnessed an “unprecedented calm” over the past 24 hours.

According to the source, the current quietness follows the death of several senior IS leaders in air raids. “Infiltrations of Mutaibija from Hawija and nearby regions have completely stopped over the past three days after all ground routes through Hamreen mountains were cut off.
