Diyala (IraqiNews.com) Two 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....
leaders, among others, were killed in an Arclight airstrike launched by the U.S.-led Coalition in east of Diyala, the military intelligence department announced.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, the department said, "based on accurate information and in coordination with the Coalition, an airstrike targeted an IS rest house of the so-called Diyala State, north of Hamreen lake."

The airstrike, according to the statement, "left several IS leaders killed including a leader who was in charge of the administrative affairs in the province and his deputy."
