Iraq's war against IS terrorism | Updates and Discussions


Some small scale ISOF ops in the north of kerkuk and baiji region.
Isis mainly attacking electric pylons, they're activity seems to stem from a triangle region which has little population.

Where's our chemical weapons when you need them. Spray that entire swamp and mountain with sarin gas. Little ISIS shits disrespecting the Safavid state.

Over A Dozen Daesh Terrorists Captured in Iraq​

Over A Dozen Daesh Terrorists Captured in Iraq

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – More than a dozen Daesh (ISIL or ISIS) terrorists, including a number of top commanders, were captured by Iraqi forces hours after five civilians were killed and several others injured in an attack in the eastern province of Diyala.​

The Iraqi National Intelligence Service (INIS) announced in a statement on Sunday that it had arrested 14 people responsible for planning and carrying out attacks during a large-scale operation in Baghdad.
According to the intelligence service, the detainees include senior Daesh commanders, namely Abu Safana, Abu Omar, and Abu Musab, who were arrested during several ambushes.
The development came shortly after Sabereen News, a Telegram news channel associated with the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units (PMU), reported that a Daesh attack on al-‘Abarah al-Sadraniyah village in Diyala had left five civilians, including three children, dead and six others wounded.
Daesh began a terror campaign in Iraq in 2014, overrunning vast swathes in lightning attacks.
Iraq declared victory over terrorist group in December 2017 after a three-year counter-terrorism military campaign, in which the PMU, known in Arabic as Hashd al-Sha’abi, also played a major role.
However, Daesh’s remnants keep staging sporadic attacks across Iraq, attempting to regroup and unleash fresh violence in the Arab country.
The Takfiri terrorist group has managed to intensify its attacks in Iraq, particularly since January 2020, when the United States assassinated top Iranian anti-terror commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani and PMU’s deputy commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis in a drone strike near Baghdad International Airport.
Anti-US sentiments sharply increased in Iraq in the aftermath of the assassination, prompting Iraqi lawmakers to pass a bill – only two days after the assassination – that required the Baghdad government to end the presence of all foreign military forces led by Washington.
The US was finally forced to end its “combat mission” in Iraq by the end of 2021, but Iraqi resistance groups say the Pentagon’s so-called advisory role has to end as well.

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq (IRI) has recently claimed responsibility for launching Al-Arqabmissiles towards Israeli targets, emphasizing their commitment to resistance against perceived occupations. Here are the key details regarding these missile attacks:

Key Developments:​

  1. Missile Launches: The IRI announced that it successfully targeted two Israeli locations using Al-Arqab missiles. This operation was described as a continuation of their resistance efforts in support of Palestine and Lebanon, particularly in response to Israeli actions against civilians.
  2. Targets: The missiles were reportedly aimed at sites in the outskirts of Haifa and other areas within what they refer to as "occupied lands." The IRI has positioned itself as a significant player in the pro-Iranian Axis of Resistance, which includes groups like Hezbollah and Yemen's Ansarallah.
  3. Statements from IRI: In their communications, IRI emphasized their resolve to intensify operations against enemy strongholds and released videos showing the missile launches. They have framed these attacks as part of a broader strategy to retaliate against Israeli military actions.
  4. Context of Escalation: The missile strikes come amid heightened tensions following the escalation of violence in Gaza and ongoing Israeli airstrikes across Lebanon. The IRI's activities have increased significantly since the onset of the conflict on October 7, 2023, with multiple strikes reported against both Israeli and U.S. targets in the region.
  5. International Reactions: These developments have raised concerns about further escalation in the region, as well as implications for U.S. military presence in Iraq and Syria. The IRI's actions reflect a broader strategy among Iranian-backed groups to assert their influence and respond to perceived threats from Israel and its allies.

Conclusion​

The launch of Al-Arqab missiles by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq signifies a marked escalation in hostilities between Iranian-backed groups and Israel. As these tensions continue to unfold, the potential for broader conflict remains a critical concern for regional stability and international security dynamics.
