ISIL Kills 112 of Own Members in Iraq’s Mosul
The ISIL Takfiri terrorist group reportedly executed 112 of its own members in Iraq’s embattled Northern province of Nineveh.
Spokesman for the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Mosul Saeed Mamouzini told Arabic-language al-Sumaria satellite television network on Monday that ISIL terrorists killed their fellow extremistsin the city, located some 400 kilometers (248 miles) North of the capital, Baghdad, on the grounds that they had plans to orchestrate a “coup” against the terrorist group’s leader, Ibrahim al-Samarrai aka Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Mamouzini added that the militants, among them 18 top commanders, were executed by firing squad at a prison in Southern Mosul.
The slain terrorists had reportedly planned to kill the self-proclaimed Mosul governor, Abu Abdul Majid Afar, overrun Nineveh Province, break from ISIL and declare war on the terrorists.
The development came on the same day that ISIL extremists rounded up scores of Mosul residents and put them under control to make sure that their relatives, who are currently performing Hajj in neighboring Saudi Arabia, would return to Iraq.
Gruesome violence has plagued the Northern and Western parts of Iraq ever since ISIL Takfiris launched an offensive in June 2014, and took control of portions of Iraqi territory.
The militants have been committing vicious crimes against all communities in Iraq, and Syria.
Units of army soldiers joined by volunteer fighters are seeking to win back militant-held regions in joint operations.
US Army advisors fail to prevent Iraqi Forces from capturing Anbar University
On the other hand, the US military advisorsfailed to change the mind of the Iraqi forces not to capture Anbar University, an official disclosed.
“The US army advisors providing counseling services to the Iraqi troops tried to prevent the Iraqi Counter-Terrorism forces from capturing Anbar University in the Western parts of Ramadi, but they failed to do so,” Samir al-Shavili, a media advisor of Iraq’s Counter-Terrorism, told FNA on Tuesday.
He noted that the Americans described Anbar University a dark tunnel and also a dangerous place packed with ISIL terrorists in a bid todissuade the Iraqi forces from seizing the university.
Last week, al-Shavili disclosed that the ISIL Takfiri terrorist group had used the poisonous mustard gas during withdrawal from Al-Anbar University.
“The Iraqi troops were exposed to mustard gas in the munitions fired by the ISIL as they were winning back the Anbar University,” al-Shavili told FNA at the time.
He said after a thorough physical examination of the Iraqi soldiers who had taken part in Anbar university operation it came to be known that the ISIL had used mustard gas against the Iraqi forces.
On Sunday, the Iraqi army started fresh military operations to take control of a strategic region in al-Anbar province, and killed tens of ISIL Takfiri terrorists in fierce clashes.
The army backed by warplanes was advancing in Anbar province towards al-Khalediya region which is currently under the control of the ISIL terrorists.
The Iraqi officials announced that at least 45 Takfiri terrorists have been killed and their strongholds have been destroyed in the Iraqi army raid.
On Wednesday, Iraqi forces and volunteers reportedly retook the key Jubbah region in Iraq’s Western Anbar province, driving out the ISIL Takfiri militants which had previously held it.
“Joint forces managed to free the Jubbah Region in the Heet District,” an informed source said.
This came as part of operation aimed to re-take the city of Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province, which was seized by ISIL back in May.
The ISIL Takfiri terrorists currently have threatened all communities, as they continue their atrocities in Iraq and Syria.
Senior Iraqi officials have blamed Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and some 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.
