Key town taken from ISIS
BAGHDAD (TMS) —
The Iraqi government claimed
that its troops and Shiite
Muslim militias captured a key
Islamic State stronghold near
Baghdad on Saturday in an
operation to boost security for
Islamic new year gatherings
that apparently was overseen
by an Iranian general.
The fall of the town of
Jurf al-Sakhar — which
couldn’t be independently
confirmed — would be the
first major success for Iraqi
Prime Minister Haidar alAbadi, who took power with
U.S. support in September
and completed assembling
his Shiite-dominated government only last week.
“Our security forces and
the heroes of the popular
mobilization have achieved
another victory in Jurf alSakhar,” Abadi wrote on his
Facebook page, referring to
the Shiite militias mobilized
after the Iraqi army imploded in mid-June as the Islamic
State overran the northern
city of Mosul and stormed to
the threshold of Baghdad.
The capture of Jurf alSakhar would bring under
government control a hotbed
of support for the Islamic
State and its predecessor,
al-Qaida in Iraq, Sunni
militants who view Shiites as
apostates and have slaughtered thousands of them.
