Iraq: 35, including 28 Daesh militants killed in Saladin
2015-03-27
[AA.TR] At least 35 people, including 28 Daesh gunnies were killed Thursday in two separate attacks in Iraq's northern province of Saladin, army sources said.

The 28 Daesh gunnies were killed in Iraqi air force and U.S.-led international coalition Arclight airstrikes on Tikrit, an Iraqi army officer said.

Separately, seven people were killed in an improvised explosives device blast at a home in Is-haki town south of Tikrit, the officer added.

"The international coalition is supporting the action against Daesh by air. Also, al-Hashid al-Shaabi commanders are getting advice from Iran," Ahmed el-Karim, Saladin province's council chief, said.

Karim, however, said there were no Iranian soldiers on the ground in his province.
