Iraq–According to security sources, at least eleven people were killed in Iraq during an attack attributed to jihadists of the so-called Islamic State in a village in the country’s northeast. The attack targeted the town of Al-Rachad in Diyala province and resulted in 11 deaths and between 13 and 15 injured, a local security source told The Arab Post. A second source, citing the presence of civilians among the victims, specified that this attack with small arms targeted a village that counts many members of the Iraqi security forces among its inhabitants.
Both confirmed that the gunmen used several vehicles and semi-automatic pistols in their attack on the town near the eastern city of Muqdadiya. Police officials said the attack took place in a predominantly Shia village. According to the police, militants from the Islamic State group had kidnapped two villagers and then broke in when their ransom demands were not met.
