Iraqi tribesmen clash with ISIL terrorists in Fallujah

Officials said fighters from various tribes clashed with the terrorists who were responsible for enforcing the religious strictures ISIL (Daesh) seeks to impose in Fallujah, west of the capital, Baghdad.

Iraq’s al-Sumaria News quoted a source in Anbar Province as saying that scores of tribesmen gained control of several areas in the Jolan district in northern Fallujah. The report added the tribesmen clashed with the terrorists after they attacked and insulted a woman at a market in the center of the city because she did not wear gloves.

Gruesome violence has plagued the northern and western parts of Iraq ever since Daesh launched an offensive in June 2014, and took control of portions of Iraqi territory.
