TEHRAN (FNA)- Iraqi security sources revealed that differences are growing among ISIL ranks and groups in the Northeastern town of Baiji, in Salahuddin province.

"The Iraqi popular forces' intelligence leaders have been informed that after ISIL's numerous defeats in repeated offensives on the town of Baiji, serious gaps have surfaced among ISIL branches in that region," an Iraqi security source told FNA on Wednesday.

 

The source said that among these groups mention can be made to al-Ansar. The Chechnian group has threatened to withdraw from regions near Baiji to return to Syria.

The Iraqi forces started operations to purge Baiji of terrorists few months ago, and later took full control of the city, its refinery and its surrounding areas.

 

But in early September reports said that the Takfiri terrorists took back some parts of Baiji after two weeks of heavy attacks on the region.

In a relevant development on Tuesday, Iraqi security forces backed by volunteer troops thwarted an ISIL attack on the outskirts of Baiji.

 

"The ISIL terrorists launched an offensive on al-Siniyah town of Baiji, but the Iraqi forces foiled the attack," a statement by the Iraqi volunteer forces said.

Tens of ISIL terrorists were killed and a large number of their vehicle destroyed in the Iraqi forces' counterattack.

 

Also, on Sunday, informed sources said that the Iraqi Army and popular forces of Hashed al-Shaabi had started fresh round of massive operations to re-seize control over Baiji.

 

The sources said that the Iraqi forces and Hashed Al-Shaabi, launched their latest offensive to recapture their lost territory in Baiji and to weaken the terrorist group’s influence over the town of Al-Siniyah.

 

Following the offensive’s announcement by the Iraqi defense minister, the Iraqi forces and popular committees stormed the Al-Tamim Neighborhood in Baiji, capturing it from the terrorist group after killing 19 militants.

TEHRAN (FNA)- Military sources disclosed that the ISIL Takfiri terrorists have withdrawn from their positions in the Southern parts of the city of Mosul in the Nineveh province.

"The ISIL terrorist group has evacuated its military positions and bases in al-Qayareh and Hamam al-Alil in the Southern parts of the city of Mosul or 400 kilometers North of Baghdad," the Arabic-language Al-Alam news channel quoted Commander of the Iraqi Army's Second Brigade Brigadier General  Zanoun Sabaawi as saying on Wednesday.

 

He reiterated that the ISIL also relocated its prisoners from its three prisons located in Hamam al-Alil region to an unknown place.

"The ISIL prisoners include army and police officers, Tribal leaders, Iraqi MPs, civil workers and ordinary citizens who have been transferred to unknown locations," Sabaawi said.

 

Earlier this month, the Southern areas of the cities of Fallujah and Ramadi in Anbar province were purged of the ISIL Takfiri terrorists.

"The 16th division of the Rapid Intervention Forces carried out a tactical operation in al-Naimiyah and managed to liberate it and arrive at a distance of 700 meters from Shuhada neighborhood South of Fallujah," Deputy President of the Anbar provincial council Faleh al-Issawi said.

 

He further said that both cities would soon be fully liberated by security forces, local police and residents, while stressing that "the recent progress has tightened the siege on ISIL".

 

The ISIL Takfiri terrorists currently control shrinking swathes of Syria and Iraq. They have threatened all communities, including Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds, Christians, Ezadi Kurds and others, as they continue their atrocities in Iraq.

 

Senior Iraqi and Syrian officials have blamed Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and some Persian Gulf Arab states for the growing terrorism in their country.

The ISIL has links with Saudi intelligence and is believed to be indirectly supported by the Israeli regime.


Right on schedule.

Tanks Trinity.

appears to be a just a matter of time.  corroborating this news with the steep uptrend in investor transactions on the isx certainly paints a picture that security in iraq is on a positive swing upwards.  i am expecting to see isil resources leaving iraq for syria as they must concentrate their efforts and reduce their fronts to absorb the counterattacks of the coalition forces.
