| [ALMASDARNEWS] Footage has been released over social media showing the gruesome aftermath of an engagement between the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units (national militia; abbreviated as PMU) and a group of 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... fighters in Kirkuk province. According to sources, an assault group of the PMU’s 16th Brigade (Turkmen) were conducting an operation near the village Hamirah when ISIS faceless myrmidons belonging to a local sleeper cell emerged. Upon identifying one another, the two sides clashed with the end result being five Islamic State fighters killed in action and one captured alive; it is unclear whether or not any PMU troops were killed or maimed. Following the defeat of its Levantine empire at the end of 2017, ISIS has since switched to a low-insurgency method of operation involving the use of sleeper units to conduct liquidations, roadside kaboomings and hit and run attacks. |
