...KABOOM!...
s on a 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) hideout in Salahaddin province.

Intelligence forces identified an ISIS hideout in the Palakana area of eastern Salahaddin, the Security Media Cell said in a statement.

"After cross-checking and analyzing information... our brave air force, using F-16 jets, carried out a precise and successful airstrike at 17:50 on Friday. The strike turned the hideout into rubble over the terrorists, killing them," read the statement.

The hideout "contained weapons, ammunition, explosives, and various logistical and technical supplies," it added.

Earlier this week, Iraqi forces conducted a joint operation with the global coalition in the Hamrin Mountains, killing nine senior ISIS officials, including the jihadists’ top leader in Iraq. Two US soldiers were maimed in the operation.
