[Iran Press TV] Soldiers of the Iraqi army have inflicted heavy losses on the ISIL Takfiri

At least 60 faceless myrmidons were killed in one Arclight airstrike targeting a juvenile prison in Mosul, the scenic provincial capital of Nineveh province, on Wednesday.

The prison was being used by the Death Eaters as a court to regularly issue beheading verdicts for those who dissent them.

Meanwhile,
...back at the cheese factory, there was only one thought in the mouse's mind: I can do this! I can do this! Then the trap sprung...
Iraq's al-Sumaria TV station quoted Iraqi officials as saying that 180 ISIL bad boyz were potted in the north of the city where the central government is carrying out Arclight airstrikes to support Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, who are also engaged in festivities with the Death Eaters there.

The figure would put ISIL's fatalities of the day at 240. One senior ISIL commander and four of his deputies were reportedly among the dead.

"We have changed our tactics from being defensive to being offensive," said Jabbar Yawar, secretary-general of the ministry in charge of the Kurdish Peshmerga fighters.

The crisis in Iraq escalated after the ISIL Takfiri faceless myrmidons took control of Mosul, in a lightning advance on June 10, which was followed by the fall of Tikrit, located 140 kilometers (87 miles) northwest of the capital Baghdad.

More than a million people have been displaced in Iraq so far this year, according to the United Nations

has said that the country's security forces would confront the terrorists, calling the seizure of Mosul a "conspiracy".

#1  "conspiracy"? That's Maliki's code for saying "Its all the Sunnis fault and the Kurds didn't rescue us". Not at all the fault of the corruption and nepotism of Shia Army officers and Regional police in the region, noooo, not at all /sarc.
