BAGHDAD, Mar 25 (NNN-NINA) – Three Daesh militants were killed in airstrikes, in Iraq’s eastern province of Diyala, a security source said today.
Iraqi warplanes, yesterday, carried out airstrikes on the Daesh hideouts, in the northern part of Diyala, destroying the hideouts and killing three Daesh militants, Major Alaa al-Saadi, from Diyala police, said.
The security situation in Iraq has improved since the defeat of the Daesh in 2017. However, its remnants have since melted into urban centres, deserts and rugged areas, carrying out frequent guerilla attacks against security forces and civilians, despite repeated military operations against them.
