TEHRAN, Apr. 20 (MNA) – Iraqi security forces targeted the hideout of a terrorist group affiliated with the ISIL in Kirkuk province.

An Iraqi security source stated that during the operation, three direct attacks were conducted against the hiding place of the terrorist, resulting in the killing of a terrorist.

ISIL, which attacked Iraq on June 7, 2014, and managed to capture about 45% of the country's territory for a short period of time, was defeated in November 2017; However, since then, the remanent members of the terrorist group are present and operating in Iraq and Syria and carry out terrorist attacks from time to time.

Iraqi security forces keep searching, clearing, and chasing ISIL across the country to make sure that ISIL and its fugitive elements do not re-emerge.
