At least two women were killed in an attack carried out by Daesh terrorist group in northern Iraq’s Nineveh province on Thursday.
TWO WOMEN KILLED
Col. Ahmad al-Jubouri of the Iraqi army told Anadolu Agency that “elements belonging to Daesh attacked the [Nineveh’s] village of al-Khazrajiya at dawn on Thursday.” “Two women were killed and several civilians were injured, including a number of children and a tribal elder,” the source added.
In mid-2014, the Daesh terrorist group overran roughly one-third of Iraq, including the northern city of Mosul.
By late 2017, the Iraqi army, with the help of a US-led military coalition, had managed to recover almost all lost territory from the notorious terror group.
