| Shiite Militias Converge on Iraq's Ramadi after Jhadist Takeover |
| 2015-05-18 |
[The Times of Israel] Shiite militia groups converged on Ramadi Monday to help Iraqi security forces wrest the city back from Islamic State fighters who seized it in a deadly three-day blitz. The effective loss of the capital of Iraq's largest province was Baghdad's worst military setback since it started clawing back land from the jihadists late last year.
The seesawing goes on between Sunni and Shia. |
