Iraqi fighters kill ten ISIL terrorists in west Iraq

Volunteer Iraqi fighters have engaged the ISIL Takfiri terrorists in the western province of Anbar, killing nearly a dozen of the militants.

According to the reports, on Tuesday, Brigadier General Abdul Amir al-Khazraji, deputy commander of Iraq’s Special Forces known as the Golden Division in Anbar, said ten ISIL terrorists were killed in clashes with volunteer forces in the Hay al-Aramil district of the provincial capital city of Ramadi, located about 110 km west of the capital, Baghdad, Iraq’s al-Sumaria satellite TV network reported.
Khazraji further noted that units of security forces also managed to thwart a terrorist onslaught against Hay al-Andalus district of the city.
Meanwhile, Iraq’s Ministry of Human Rights announced that ISIL terrorists have executed 23 civilians, among them a woman, in the militant-held northern city of Mosul, located some 400 km north of Baghdad, on the alleged ground that they were in collaboration with Iraqi security forces.
On February 7, local official Mowaffaq Hamid al-Azawi described Mosul as a big open-air prison, where residents are subjected to various kinds of torture and are suffering at the hands of ISIL.
He added that some scholars in the city even distort religious principles to serve ISIL’s interests.
In another development on Tuesday, the ISIL terrorists executed nearly a dozen of fellow militants in Iraq’s northern province of Salahuddin on charges of fleeing the battlefield.
