Iraqi army, Peshmerga launch joint anti-ISIS op in disputed areas
|
[Rudaw] Peshmerga forces and the Iraqi army launched a joint operation in the Qarachogh mountain area of Makhmour district in Nineveh province on Monday, following signs of Islamic State
 ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) movement detected by thermal cameras, but found no turbans during the search.
Makhmour is among areas disputed by Erbil and Baghdad, and ISIS has previously exploited the security vacuum in the town’s rugged terrain.
"The army and security forces in the area noticed suspicious nighttime movements through thermal cameras. Therefore, a joint operation was conducted today to follow up and search the area, but no ISIS turbans were found, and the operation ended," Mohammed Jassim Kakai, head of the security and defense committee in the Nineveh Provincial Council, told Rudaw.
To bolster security and stability in the region, the Peshmerga forces and the Iraqi army carried out a joint operation in the foothills of Mount Qarachogh, according to a statement from the Ministry of Peshmerga Affairs on Facebook. The search covered the plains and valleys to the south and north of the mountain.
"The aim of these operations is to search for and clear ISIS terrorist hideouts, so that the region’s security and calm can be better maintained," the ministry added.
