2018-05-06
Kirkuk (IraqiNews.com) Several 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....
snuffies were killed and maimed on Friday when Iraqi air forces pounded their hideouts in the south of 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.

Alsumaria News quoted the source saying that Iraqi aviation launched Arclight airstrikes on Samaka and Daquq regions, leaving several Islamic State snuffies dead and their hiding places destroyed.

He said the hideouts were located on the road between Daquq and Tuz Khurmatu, and were used as launching points for attacks on civilians and security troops.
