    BAGHDAD - US and local authorities are searching for three American citizens who were reportedly kidnapped in Baghdad, officials from the two countries said on Sunday.

    Kidnappings are a major problem in Baghdad and other parts of the country and most frequently target Iraqis, but Qatari and Turkish citizens have also been seized in recent months.

    "We are aware of reports that American citizens are missing in Iraq," US State Department spokesman John Kirby said.

    "We are working with the full cooperation of the Iraqi authorities to locate and recover the individuals," Kirby added, without providing details about their number or the circumstances of their disappearance.

    An Iraqi police colonel said on condition of anonymity that three Americans and an Iraqi translator were kidnapped in southern Baghdad, and that Iraqi forces have launched an operation to find them.

    The officer said that according to information he had received, the kidnappers were militiamen wearing military uniforms.

    "We don't know what their work is," the colonel said of the kidnapped Americans.

    Iraq turned to paramilitary forces dominated by Iran-backed Shiite militias to help combat the Islamic State jihadist group, which overran large parts of the country in 2014.

    These groups, which fall under an umbrella organisation known as the Hashed al-Shaabi, or Popular Mobilisation units, have played a key role in the fight against the jihadists.

    But they have also been accused of abuses including summary executions, kidnappings and destruction of property.

    BAGHDAD -- A U.N. report released Tuesday says at least 18,802 civilians in Iraq were killed and another 36,245 wounded between Jan. 1, 2014 and Oct. 31, 2015.

    The reports calls the civilian death toll "staggering" and details killings by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) including by shooting, beheading, bulldozing, burning alive and throwing people off of buildings.

    The report also said ISIS is believed to currently be holding approximately 3,500 people captive as slaves.

     

    "Those being held are predominantly women and children and come primarily from the Yezidi community, but a number are also from other ethnic and religious minority communities," said the report, issued jointly by the U.N.'s Assistance Mission for Iraq and the global body's human rights office.

    It said the crimes committed by ISIS may "in some instances, amount to war crimes, crimes against humanity, and possibly genocide."

    ISIS swept across northern and western Iraq in the summer of 2014 plunging the country into its worst political and security crisis since the withdrawal of U.S. troops in 2011.

    Experts in the economy: the most prominent of these solutions to tackle the financial crisis in Iraq


     


    BAGHDAD / .. put the economic crisis faced by the Iraqi economy in the last third of the year 2015, the government in front of a sliding may result in an end to the collision with more than 4 million employees and retirees, particularly with regard to reduction of salaries under the name of "new peace" or any another name and campaign Limbering government and the abolition of many of the positions of sovereign and management proxy. .


     


    In conjunction with the wave of popular anger of government performance, and demonstrations, and moving water reforms by reference in Najaf, last Friday, and claim to be reforms, "real", came Finance Minister Hoshyar Zebari's remarks, which are denied by the post, not the government's ability to continue to push forward employees' salaries during the next April, as a prick in extra feet Iraqi employee.


     


    First oppositions and set off on a decision by the reduction of university professors, and who have expressed their categorical rejection to reduce the portion of their salary through large demonstrations, denounced the government to go towards reducing the monthly dues.


     


    "Compensate for the lack of liquidity" process at a certain point and did not stop until it became the modern citizen, the first occupant, to take his share in the mode of expression cynicism once, and in a way ironic again, while others came as proposals, most notably a proposal "to grant parliament leave for an entire year without salary "for a few expenses.


     


    Amid the presence of the fingers point towards the fact that the austerity measures announced by the government work out, may be "conditions" of the International Monetary Fund to lend to Iraq, nodded activists and economists specialists, they took the economic crisis seriously, by the possible reduction of the crisis and bridging the gap deficit in the 2016 budget year, which exceeded the 24 trillion dinars.


     


    And he predicted the parliamentary finance committee member Majda al-Tamimi's government to take "measures" and described "a failure", to meet the fiscal deficit, the government, represented by the orientation towards reducing the rate of the dinar or mortgage oil.


     


    She said Tamimi's "Eye Iraq News", that "the government is expected to tend to reduce the value of the Iraqi dinar against the dollar or mortgage Iraqi oil for decades to come," asserting that "these two options Sadharan the Iraqi economy and the citizen significantly."


     


    But the trend is expected for the Government of the Central Bank found lookout, where the latter stressed that "the bank's board is the only body authorized according to the law determining the dinar exchange rate."


     


    And is reducing the value of the dinar against the dollar, and a pledge of oil, economists expressed fears of government directed towards another proposal represents a reduction of pensions, and Parliament voted to approve the material contained in the budget of 2016 pertaining to the deduction of 3% of the employees and pensioners, and provides this article on the distribution of this deduction of 60% of the popular crowd and 40% of the relief to the displaced, another paragraph added to the budget.


     


    Economic spokesman Antoine said for "Eye Iraq News", that "the government and the judge of Representatives decision to deduct part of the retirees and employees' salaries would have a negative economic returns and it will help increase the Iraqi market contraction," explaining that "Iraq is going through an economic crisis and a clear and thus Fastqtaa salaries though by relatively few, it will greatly affect the majority of Iraqi citizens who depend on salaries. "


     


    When he proposed obtaining the debt of mobile phone companies and others as well as the application of the customs tariff would have saved the government large sums of money to be bigger than achieve deduct salaries to clog the fiscal deficit ", especially since the value of the indebtedness of the mobile phone companies have reached more than $ 400 million.


     


    In addition to the above solutions, the Iraqi government stressed the need to go to the Iraqi industries and the development of the industrial and agricultural sector to ease the pressure on oil, which some dropped to the difficulty of the advancement of the domestic industry, which took decline gradually after 2003, until it became the "Made in Iraq" a number of anecdotes until the tomato paste tray.


     


    The proposed other solution has walked away Iraqi map, down to the Arab and European countries, representing the levy Iraqi funds contraband, and foreign affairs, in addition to the cancellation of Mentvih economic agreements necessary, including the Baghdad agreement-Oman, and the judge to sell a barrel of oil at less than rolling the market price at $ 20, which will provide 200 thousand dollars a day for the Iraqi treasury, as opposed to "good neighbor" principle taken by Oman, and even Baghdad, for the continuation of the Convention concluded between the two parties.


     


    "Forced savings" from the staff proposal also emerged within the possible suggestions, as well as "granting leave without pay", the last of which was represented by "giving Parliament an open leave without pay" to reduce costs, and benefit from the allocation of parliamentarians and the presidency of the House of Representatives in more directions necessary and reduce the number of protections, and reducing the number of members of the provincial councils in half, and the most unusual proposal may represent the distribution of salaries every 45 days, instead of the 30 followed.


     


    In addition to the solutions to the many proposals submitted to the cabinet table, the last insists rely on external borrowing, excluding financial and the metal of the accounts of the Central Bank reserves, to confront the crisis, which now haunts the employee and the ruling alike, and highly influenced by degrees, because of saving it all of them. " black day "as described by the popular proverb.

  19. "Friendly fire" by Iraqi drone kills nine anti-IS fighters

    Source: Reuters - Sun, 10 Jan 2016 15:53 GMT

    Author: Reuters
     

    BAGHDAD, Jan 10 (Reuters) - Nine fighters from a Shi'ite Muslim militia battling Islamic State were killed in northern Iraq when an Iraqi army aircraft fired at them in error, security and militia sources said on Sunday.

    The fighters were responding to an Islamic State attack west of Camp Speicher, a former U.S. base outside the city of Tikrit, said Ahmed al-Assadi, spokesman for the Hashid Shaabi, a coalition of mostly Shi'ite militias fighting the militants alongside Iraq's military.

    More than a dozen fighters were wounded, he said.

    Colonel Mohammed al-Assadi, spokesman for the joint police and military operations command in Salahuddin province, said that at 10:30 pm (1930 GMT) on Saturday, an Iraqi army aviation drone opened fire due to mistaken coordinates.

    Assadi said the drone was being fired at from the ground and "fired on the advancing Jund al-Imam forces, killing nine and wounding around 15," he added, referring to the militia.

    Spokesmen for Iraq's defence ministry and joint operations command were not immediately available for comment.

    Asaib Ahl al-Haq, a powerful Iranian-backed militia that is part of the Hashid, condemned the incident and blamed it on the U.S.-led coalition bombing Islamic State targets in Iraq and neighbouring Syria.

    "The American coalition renewed its attacks on the Hashid Shaabi resistance factions when an American drone bombed the headquarters of Kataib Jund al-Islam at Camp Speicher," spokesman Naim al-Uboudi said in a statement.

    But the coalition said in a daily statement it had not bombed any targets in the area, and its Baghdad-based spokesman, U.S. Army Colonel Steve Warren, denied coalition aircraft were responsible.

    "It was Iraqi for sure," he said by phone.

    The fight against Islamic State is testing a thorny arrangement that puts the U.S.-led air campaign on the same side as Iranian-backed militias supporting Iraqi forces on the ground.

    Washington listed some of the armed groups as "terrorist" organisations after they battled U.S. forces following the 2003 invasion. The militias, in turn, perceive in continued American involvement in Iraq a plan to partition the country.

    Nine Iraqi soldiers were killed last month when coalition war planes, relying on information from Iraqi security forces, mistakenly struck at troops near the city of Falluja, 50 kilometres (30 miles) west of Baghdad.

    TEHRAN (FNA)- The Iraqi fighter jets killed the second top deputy of ISIL leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in the province of Anbar, Western Iraq.

    Asi Ali Nasser was killed in Iraqi airstrikes in Bervaneh region in Anbar province.

    Many senior ISIL commanders, including al-Baghdadi's top deputy Abu Ali al-Anbari, have been killed in the Iraqi army attacks on the terrorist group's positions in Iraq over the past few months.

    Other ISIL commanders killed in the Iraqi airstrikes in the last few months included Abu Ala'a al-Ofri and Abu Hassan al-Sahabi, head of ISIL's intelligence committee.

    Yesterday, Iraqi Defense Ministry said "ISIL Spokesman Abu Mohammad al-Adnani was killed during the terrorist group’s offensive at the town of Barwani in Iraq’s Western territories".

    The ISIL has not thus far issued any statement regarding al-Adnani’s fate.

    In a relevant development in late November, the convoy of al-Baghdadi himself came under the Iraqi air force's airstrike.

    A military statement by the Iraqi Army announced that the Iraqi air force had bombed the convoy of al-Baghdadi while he was heading to Al-Karable to attend a meeting with ISIL commanders.

    Al-Karable is the Subdistrict in the West of the Al Anbar province of Iraq, beside the Syrian border in an area of high ground. 

    Spokesman of Iraqi joint forces announced that the ISIL leader had been injured and over two dozen more Takfiri terrorists killed in the Iraqi army's airstrike on their convoy in Anbar province.

    Al-Baghdadi was injured in the Iraqi airstrike on his convoy and was transferred to another place by his forces, the spokesman said.

    He also said that 25 other ISIL terrorists who were accompanying al-Baghdadi were killed in the airstrike.

    Arabic-language media outlets said a special unit of Iraq's air force known as the Falcons who have so far managed to kill several ISIL leaders in various operations, including an efficient attack on a number of top terrorist commanders on June 1, had done the airstrike.

    Several ISIL commanders were killed in the June airstrike, including Abu Hareth Al-Shami, Abu Aeshe al-Ansari - an explosives expert - Moroccan national Abu Yousef Al-Jezrawi, Abu Hussein Al-Salmani who was in charge of ISIL's Zakah (an Islamic tax system) issues, and Wa'd al-Latif Jom'eh al-Mohammadi who was in charge of ISIL's suicide operation agents.
