This map provides a brief look at the military situation in Iraq on October 31, 2018:
- Three children were killed in an IED attack in Mosul’s Old City;
- Police seized a car bomb and arrested an ISIS member in the city of Mosul;
- ISIS carried out a series of attacks on the villages of Dawoud al-Akoula and Hanan in the province of Kirkuk. Two police officers were wounded;
- 7 ISIS members were killed in clashes with the Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) across the province of Salahuddin;
- 15 Shia worshipers were killed in an IED blast near a religious shrine in Diyala.
I’m HONESTLY THRILLED to see Iraq recovering, (though admittedly, SLOWLY); nonetheless, the Govt. SEEMS to be establishing some normalcy! THAT is a START!
UNFORTUNATELY the fight between CONSERVATIVE & EXTREME Religionist factions will slow the healing…BUT! PROGESS is better than NOTHING!!!
Yes and No.
1. Kick the Yanks out. 2. More Iranian and maybe even Russians to annihilate ISIS.
Only then, can they show their full potential.
