Iraqi forces, Kurdish Peshmerga re-trap North village from fighters – Source

SULAIMANIYA / Baghdad: Iraq, Iraqi forces and Pethpga Kurdish fighters have recaptured a village in North Iraq on Monday after the militant of the Islamic State took him on the previous day, the security and police source said.
The Ministry of Interior forces of the Iraqi elite and Peshmerda Kurda fighters were managed on early Monday to control the village of Luhaiban, although guerrillas had left several houses trapped with explosives, said sources.
In a separate attack on Sunday, Islamic militants killed four Peshmerga soldiers and a civilian, and injured six others when they attacked Salem Qara Village in North Iraq, security sources said.
The Ministry of Affairs Peshmerga said in a statement that the attack caused the victim, but did not confirm the victim.
Peshmerga is a military force of the Ock Kurdistan autonomous region.
One Colonel Peshmerga said Islamic state fighters used hit-and-run tactics in night attacks in their position.
“They avoid holding land for a longer time.
The more amplifier strength is sent to the area to prevent further attacks,” said the Colonel.
Iraqi forces and Peshmga Kurdish fighters strengthened their troops in the area on Monday where the attack was carried out by militant groups with Iraqi military helicopters flying to chase militants, said two Iraqi security sources.
The two villages were in a remote area claimed by the Iraqi government in Baghdad and the Regional Government of North Autonomy Kurdi in Erbil where there was a regular attack by the Islamic State.
But this is a rare incident of Islamic militants in controlling residential areas near the main road, highways connecting Erbil to Kirkuk city.
Iraq expressed victory over the Sunni hardline militant group in December 2017.
Although the group was largely defeated, he continued to carry out sporadic attacks and operate limited cells in the country, especially in the north.
