Iraqi forces kill six terrorists in Nineveh, destroy a cave in Kirkuk
2022-12-11
[Shafaq News] Iraq's Security Media Cell announced that a citizen and six bad boyz were potted in festivities in Nineveh Governorate.

In a statement, the Cell explained that those terrorist elements hid on a farm, where the owner shot two dead. But he later died when the others launched an RBG7 missile.

The four turbans fled to Jazeerat al-Hatra, south of djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
, where a joint force of the Iraqi Army and the Popular Mobilization forces killed them.

Two of them were jacket wallahs.

The Cell also reported that the Iraqi F-16 warplanes struck a cave intensively in Alton Kupri in Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
where ISIS elements were hidden.

Iraq celebrates the fifth anniversary of liberation and victory over ISIS this December.
Rudaw reports what appear to be the same operation happening in a different province:
Iraqi security forces on Saturday said they had killed six suspected Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) members including two jacket wallahs in Salahaddin province, on the same day that Iraq declared victory against the terror group five years ago.

Six ISIS suspects, including two suicide bombers, were killed in an Iraqi army operation in northwestern Salahaddin province, Iraqi state media cited the country’s Security Media Cell as saying, adding that a local shepherd lost his life in the festivities.

In November, Iraq launched the eighth phase of an ongoing operation targeting ISIS remnants in djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
, two months after the seventh phase was launched in Salahaddin and Diyala.

Iraq in September announced the killing of Abu Fatima, the military commander of the group in Salahaddin province, and described him as one of the "dangerous terrorists" that had "participated in terrorist attacks against security forces and civilians."
