Iraqi Air Force Bombs Heavily ISIL’s Strongholds in Western Anbar
The Iraqi Air Force targeted ISIL’s positions in the Western part of Anbar province on Wednesday, killing 14 terrorists.
A sum of 14 terrorists were killed in Iraqi air attack on ISIL’s booby-trapping workshop in al-Obaidi, in the town of al-Qa’em.
The Arabic-language Elam al-Harbi reported last month that the Iraqi pro-government forces liberated Akashat region in the Western part of Anbar province.
Elam al-Harbi said that the army soldiers, the volunteer forces of Hashd al-Shaabi, Hashd al-Ashayer (tribes) and a regiment of police of Akashat stormed ISIL’s defense lines and liberated the region, reopening Akashat’s road to Highway.
