BAGHDAD, Jan 25 (NNN-NINA) – A total of six militants of the Daesh group were killed yesterday, in airstrikes near the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, the Iraqi military said.
The Iraqi warplanes, based on intelligence report, conducted a series of airstrikes on the Daesh position, in the Tarmiyah area, some 30 km north of Baghdad, leaving six Daesh militants killed, the Iraqi Joint Operations Command said, in a statement.
The latest airstrikes came, after another series of airstrikes earlier in the day, targeting a Daesh position, in the Makhoul mountain range, in the northern part of Salahudin province, reportedly killing four militants.
