Following the attack of the ISIS terrorist group in Iraq, the Iraqi army, with the famous fatwa of Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Sistani, the supreme authority of this country, and the formation of the Al-Hashd al-Shaabi organization, finally succeeded with the great sacrifices of the Iraqi youth, that after three and a half years of war, ISIS defeat and declare victory over this terrorist group in 2017.
Since then, although the small cells of ISIS hide in the mountains and desert and border areas, especially in the provinces of Nineveh, Anbar and Diyala, carry out terrorist operations against the military and civilians, on the other hand, the Iraqi forces carry out several cleaning operations on a weekly basis.
