[AlAhram] Egypt's interior ministry said on Tuesday that police potted 11 holy warriors in a shootout at a farm that was being used as a terrorist hideout in Ismailia governorate.
Police also confiscated equipment including three machine guns, one rifle, wireless communication devices, kabooms, as well as large amounts of ammunition, the statement reads.
Several other hideouts were also raided by police forces, including in Ismailia and 10th of Ramadan City, which were used to stockpile equipment to be smuggled to North Sinai.
Police also tossed in the clink Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! six people at one of the hideouts who were involved in providing support to terrorist groups in North Sinai, according to the statement.
Police forces also arrested three people who were part of a smuggling network that provided logistical support to terrorist groups in North Sinai.
[ALMASDARNEWS] Seven people were executed in Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... on Tuesday following their convictions on charges of murder, robbery and drug smuggling. The condemned included a gang of six Yemeni home invaders and one Saudi drug-runner.
The Yemenis were convicted of killing three people across multiple home invasions in ’Asir, a southern province of Saudi Arabia. They also stole cash and other valuables from the homes of their victims. All six men were executed in the city of Abha.
The Saudi convict had smuggled pills into the country and was executed in Tabuk.
One hundred thirty people have been executed in Saudi Arabia thus far in 2017, not quite breaking last year’s number of 154 executions. In the Kingdom, a litany of crimes can result in execution, including homosexuality, adultery, blasphemy, witchcraft and sexual misconduct. However, there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened... the vast majority of executions are conducted for serious convictions of terrorism, drug-smuggling, kidnapping, armed robbery, rape and murder.

Diyala (IraqiNews.com) A local official from Diyala province has said Islamic State members left their hideouts in the region on borders with Salahuddin province and are likely drawing plans.
“Islamic State has been silent in Mutaibija. Most of the militants were hiding at underground rest houses and hideouts. The situation has been very calm for weeks,” Mohamed Daifan al-Ebeidi, head of Udhaim provincial council, told AlSumaria News on Monday.
“The situation in Mutaibija changed over the past 24 hours. There has been an activity that started to show up as IS members began getting out of their underground hideouts,” he said. “Maybe the group tries to do something at any time, which urged the security forces to be on high alert.”
“It’s time to end Islamic State’s presence in Mutaibija, which is a security challenge not for Diyala only but Salahuddin and Kirkuk also,” he added.

[ALMASDARNEWS] The remains of 340 Yazidis who were massacred by ISIS have been discovered in a mass grave nearby djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... . The grisly discovery was made by Iraqi troops in the ancient Assyrian city of Nineveh in northern Iraq.
"The mass grave contains the bodies of 340 people and is located in al-Ba’aj town, which was under control of Isis terrorists," Brigadier General Mohammed al-Shemari stated.
The area of Nineveh and the Iraqi province of the same name are still under the process of being secured by Iraqi armed forces, after it was fully liberated from ISIS control in July, after months of heavy fighting.
The mass grave is estimated to date back to 2014, when the terrorist group first gained control over significant portions of northern Iraq in a blitz offensive. The over three hundred bodies are thought to belong to men, women and even children who were executed by ISIS.

[ALMASDARNEWS] The UN special envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura said he was informed that Russia and the Syrian government had agreed to a ceasefire in Syria’s Eastern Ghouta.
He was speaking to journalists ahead of the latest round of Syrian peace talks in Geneva on Tuesday.
"We are, and were, very concerned about it," he said.
"Now we need to see whether it is a safe place, but it is not coincidental that is has actually been proposed and agreed upon just the day of the beginning of this session," he added.
The talks, which are mediated by the UN, began in confusion earlier in the morning.
Negotiations were due to start on November 28, but Bashar-al-Assad’s government only confirmed their participation the day before. Representatives of the Syrian government are now expected to arrive on Wednesday.
