tigergorzow Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 Female ISIS recruit received £35 per month to lash 'immodest women' March 09 2017 08:00 PM ISIS female recruiter paid for torturing women A 26-year-old female Isis member, now in prison in Iraqi Kurdistan, has revealed she was paid £35 per month to lash women deemed immodest with ropes and sticks in the city of Mosul, International Business Times said. Yass Khathr, who lived in Iraq's second city all her life, told the Times that she punished roughly 50 women a week, beating them for crimes against the so-called caliphate that ranged from smoking, reading banned books or showing their ankles beneath their niqabs. "I took the job because I needed the money," she told the newspaper. In return for meting out Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi's justice Khathr was paid 50,000 Iraqi dinars (£35). Unlike men who were regularly beaten in public, their punishments exhibited in grisly Isis propaganda, women were not whipped in public. As Iraqi forces, backed by the United States, push further into ISIS' remaining territory in the fifth month of their assault on the city, more is being learned about life under the extremist militant group. Khathr, now in prison with other former recruits of the ISIS, told the Times she greatly regretted the role she had played during Isis' two-year rule. She said she had joined the radical group despite the protestation of her family. Now she fears they would not accept her were she released. "I will be shunned by family, my community ... I can never go back home," she was quoted as saying. The female Isis enforcer is sister to a dead jihadi, her husband is now also in prison. Khathr was intercepted by Kurdish fighters as she fled fighting in Mosul in the second month of the assault of the Isis-held city. http://www.thebaghdadpost.com/en/story/7936/Female-ISIS-recruit-received-35-per-month-to-lash-immodest-women 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigergorzow Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 Iraqi Army Aims to Oust IS from Western Mosul in a Month Basnews English 10/03/2017 - 01:22 Iraq MOSUL — Iraqi forces aim to defeat and oust Islamic State (IS) militants in Mosul within one month, said the head of the elite Counter Terrorism Service on Thursday. "Despite the tough fighting... we are moving ahead in persistence to finish the battle for the western side within a month," Lieutenant General Talib Shaghati told Reuters. The Iraqi government forces, backed by the US-led coalition airpower, are currently advancing into the western neighborhoods of Mosul, a major city in northern Iraq where was once considered the extremis group’s most strategic stronghold in Iraq. Despite making rapid territorial grounds, the Iraqi troops are facing fierce resistance by IS insurgents who struggle to maintain control over the densely-populated western Mosul. Mosul operation was launched on October 17th last year. After more than three months, the entire eastern neighborhoods of the city were liberated. Earlier in February, the Iraqi troops launched a new phase of the assault, aiming at western bank of Tigris river which crosses through the center of Mosul. http://www.basnews.com/index.php/en/news/iraq/335443 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The night-time operation was conducted around midnight by seasoned units of the Rapid Response Division. Palestine Hotel, sometimes called Assyria Hotel, overlooks the Tigris River. Earlier today, Iraqi troops also took control of two districts in western Mosul despite a daily wave of ISIS suicide bombers lunging themselves at the advancing government forces. Around 85% of Mosul has been liberated so far; nevertheless, an estimated 2,000 jihadists are still bogged down in the northwestern part of the city and are yet to surrender themselves. https://www.almasdarnews.com/article/breaking-iraqi-army-liberates-hotel-downtown-mosul-amid-daring-night-raid/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigergorzow Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Iraq aims to drive Islamic State from west Mosul within a month by Loaa Adel Mar 9, 2017, 7:47 pm Iraqi rapid response members prepare to cross the route to avoid being hit by Islamic State snipers in western Mosul, Iraq March 9, 2017. REUTERS/Zohra Bensemra (Reuters) Iraqi forces aim to dislodge Islamic State militants from west Mosul within a month, despite gruelling urban combat in densely populated terrain, the head of the elite Counter Terrorism Service told Reuters on Thursday. As Iraqi forces advance deeper into west Mosul, they are facing increasingly stiff resistance from Islamic State militants using suicide car bombs and snipers to defend their last major stronghold in Iraq. Their operation to retake the eastern bank of the city, launched in mid-October with support from a U.S.-led coalition, took more than three months. The offensive to recapture west Mosul got underway less than three weeks ago. “Despite the tough fighting… we are moving ahead in persistence to finish the battle for the western side within a month,” Lieutenant General Talib Shaghati told Reuters at a conference in Sulaimaniya. The few thousand militants still fighting in west Mosul are overwhelmingly outnumbered by a 100,000-strong array of Iraqi forces, but their ruthless tactics east of the Tigris river late last year enabled them to hold out much longer than the government’s initial optimistic predictions. Mosul is by far the largest city which Islamic State has held in its cross-border, self-declared caliphate in Iraq and Syria. It has been losing ground in both countries, with three separate forces, backed by the United States, Turkey and Russia, advancing on its Syrian stronghold of Raqqa. In Mosul, CTS forces recaptured the Moalimin and Silo districts on Thursday, according to the commander of the campaign Lieutenant General Abdul Ameer Rasheed Yarallah. Inside the city, CTS are fighting alongside the Federal Police and the elite interior ministry Rapid Response force, which earlier this week recaptured the provincial government headquarters and the Mosul museum. A federal police colonel said on Thursday there were skirmishes close to the museum, where the militants filmed themselves destroying priceless statues and sculptures in 2015. “The frontline is just beyond it,” said Lieutenant Colonel Hammeed Habib of the Rapid Response forces. “There are snipers stationed in tall hotel buildings on a road beyond that line”. The Iraqi army’s ninth division and Shi’ite paramilitary forces said on Wednesday they had cut the main road between the city and the Islamic State stronghold of Tal Afar to the west, tightening a noose around the city. There is little doubt Iraqi forces will eventually prevail over the militants, who are both outnumbered and overpowered, but even if it loses Mosul, Islamic State is expected to revert to their insurgent tactics of old. On Wednesday, bomb blasts ripped through a wedding party near Tikrit, which was recaptured by Iraqi forces in 2015, killing more than 20 people. The jihadist group has lost most of the cities it captured in northern and western Iraq in 2014 and 2015. In Syria, U.S.-backed Syrian forces said on Thursday they expected to reach the outskirts of Islamic State-held Raqqa city in a few weeks. The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), an alliance including the Kurdish YPG militia, is the main U.S. partner in the war against Islamic State in Syria. The U.S.-led coalition said on Thursday a Marines unit had deployed to help the campaign. In Mosul, civilians are fleeing in greater number as the fighting approaches the densely populated old city, causing alarm that the camps for displaced people are nearly full . About 40,000 people have fled the fighting and hardship in the past 10 days, bringing the total number of people displaced from Mosul since campaign started to more than 215,000, according to United Nations estimates. Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi called on the population to stay in their homes, at the same time urging humanitarian organisations and government agencies to step up efforts to help the tens of thousands who fled. It was from the Mosul old city’s grand al-Nuri Mosque that Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared his “caliphate” nearly three years go. Baghdadi, an Iraqi whose real name is Ibrahim al-Samarrai, has left operational commanders to fight in the city, moving in a remote, mostly desert stretch, trying to evade surveillance, according to U.S. and Iraqi official. http://www.iraqinews.com/iraq-war/iraq-aims-drive-islamic-state-west-mosul-within-month/ Edited March 10, 2017 by tigergorzow 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigergorzow Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 By Holly Williams CBS News March 9, 2017, 7:24 PM Civilians flee Mosul as Iraqi forces smash remaining ISIS fighters (Video in link) MOSUL, Iraq -- This is a part of the world so ancient it’s mentioned in the Bible. Now it’s been brought to its knees. Mosul is being shattered as Iraqi forces pound fighters from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) in the long-awaited campaign to take back the city. ISIS forces captured Mosul in 2014. On Thursday, residents of this once-wealthy city fled with their bundles of possessions, sometimes, with just the clothes on their backs. In the Al-Dawasa neighborhood about 150 yards from the front line, Muhammed Yunus had made it to to safety with his young family. He said ISIS fighters are hiding in people’s homes. Four had occupied his house, he said, before it was struck by a mortar. As the Iraqis claw back one street at a time, ISIS has smashed through the walls of homes in order to move from house to house without being detected from the sky. Iraqi forces claimed they’d recaptured Mosul’s main government building on Tuesday. But on Thursday, reporters weren’t allowed within a block of it. Brigadier General Shakar Al Khafaji said ISIS is still sniping at his forces, contesting every inch of territory even as the fighters retreat. When ISIS is finally pushed out of Mosul -- which could take weeks -- scars will remain. Hassan Ali fled the city with his wife Hala and five children, but said they had to leave behind the body of his father, who died a week ago. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/civilians-flee-mosul-as-iraqi-forces-smash-remaining-isis-fighters/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
