Kurdish citizen killed in Islamic State attack in Kirkuk
2018-06-26
Kirkuk (Iraqinews.com) ‐ A Kurdish citizen was killed while another injured in an attack launched by 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 in Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
a security source was quoted saying.

"IS faceless myrmidons stormed a village late Monday in Daquq district in southern Kirkuk, leaving a Kurdish citizen dead and another injured," the source told Iraqi website Baghdad Today.

Kirkuk officials always urge reinforcing military troops in the south and west of the province, as the region still has Islamic State members who escaped during liberation of Hawija to remote areas.
