A statement released issued by the Iraq’s Ministry of Interior on Sunday, saying the terrorists were killed in the district of al-Qa’im, located in west of Anbar, Iraqi News reported.
The ministry spokesman General Officer Saad Mo’en said in the statement, “Security forces, with support from the Army’s Air Force, have managed to conduct a painful strike on ISIL sites in the area of al-Qa’im,”
Mo’en added that “Abu Sumayyah, the ISIL military leader for the district,” was among the terrorists killed in the strike.
