Reliable sources disclosed on Monday that the ISIL
terrorist group gets rid of the dead bodies of its militants who are
killed in the Iraqi airstrikes in Fallujah by throwing them into the
Euphrates River.
They noted that eyewitnesses have seen ISIL terrorists' dead bodies floating on the Euphrates River.
The Iraqi army and volunteer forces continued their advances in Anbar province, killing tens of Takfiri terrorists Fallujah.
At least 110 ISIL terrorists were killed in the
offensive of Iraqi joint forces in Northern al-Karmah to the Northeast
of Fallujah city.
Al-Karmah is an important and strategic city near
Fallujah and is considered as an entrance gate to the city of Fallujah.
It is located 16 kilometers to the Northeast of Fallujah.
On Tuesday, Iraqi military forces managed to push
ISIL militants back from agricultural areas outside Fallujah as they
continue their military operation to retake Iraq's Western city.
Lieutenant Ahmed Mahdi Salih, a commander in Iraqi
federal police participating in the battle, said that fierce battles
were taking place in the Eastern vicinity of Fallujah which the
militants are using as a supply line, Rudaw news website reported.
The operation is being conducted under the command
of Lt. Gen. Abdul Wahab Al Sa'adi who pointed out that tough terrains
of the battlefields, the risk of civilian casualties and the improvised
explosive devices (IEDs) ISIL has planted in and around the city are
obstacles to a swift victory, which is why they will begin the offensive
by surrounding and bombarding ISIL positions.
While Iraqi military and paramilitary forces have
had the city encircled for over a year this is their first serious
attempt to recapture the city and force the militants to retreat from
the area.
ISIL captured Fallujah back in January 2014 making it the first and longest city it has been controlling in Iraq.
