Iraq’s Security Media Cell announced on Monday, ISIS hideouts were destroyed in Kirkuk and Saladin governorates.
In a statement, the Cell said, “The Iraqi army Airforce destroyed a large hideout of ISIS terrorist elements, containing weapons, military equipment, and supplies, in the Wadi al-Shay area in Kirkuk.”
“The Army Aviation continued its operations to support the security forces and destroyed a motorcycle and another hideout in Saladin.” In 2017, Iraq declared final victory over ISIS after Iraqi forces drove its last remnants from the country, three years after the militant group captured about a third of Iraq’s territory.
Yet, ISIS still has sleeper cells in several Iraqi Governorates.
