Pishmarga Forces Target ISIL Convoy, Kill at Least 8 Terrorists near Kirkuk

“The Pishmarga fighters repelled the ISIL attack on the village of al-Hananiyah in the district of al-Riyad in Southwest of Kirkuk and destroyed a large number of their vehicles and killed at least eight terrorist fighters,” the source said.

The ISIL Takfiri terrorists currently control shrinking swathes of Syria and Iraq. They have threatened all communities, including Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds, Christians, Ezadi Kurds and others, as they continue their atrocities in Iraq.

Senior Iraqi officials have blamed Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and some Persian Gulf Arab states for the growing terrorism in their country.

The ISIL has links with Saudi intelligence and is believed to be indirectly supported by the Israeli regime.
