ISIL Preparing to Attack Mosul Security, Intelligence Offices in Northern Iraq

Security and intelligence forces in Iraq’s Northern Neynava province warned that there is an imminent threat of a huge attack by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) on Mosul’s security and intelligence departments.
Iraqi security forces said the terrorist group plans to set free its arrested members kept in Mosul’s security and intelligence offices, Kurd Press news website reported.

The warning by Neynava security and intelligence departments came after the ISIL terrorists attacked Kirkouk’s intelligence department.

The ISIL is an Al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group comprised of foreign and Arab terrorists. The group has mainly been operating in Syria for the last two years.

Mosul is a city in Northern Iraq and the capital of the Neynava Province, some 400 km Northwest of Baghdad. Mosul is Iraq’s second largest city after Baghdad.
