Daesh Takfiris execute 300 in Iraq’s Mosul

Daesh Takfiris have executed 300 people in Iraq’s embattled northern province of Nineveh.

“Daesh terrorists executed 300 people by firing squad in Mosul,” said Mahmoud al-Sourji, a spokesman for Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces, on Sunday, adding that all of them were “Iraqi police personnel, army troopers and civilian activists,” Arabic-language al-Sumaria satellite television network reported.

Sourji further said that Daesh lives in a state of tension in Mosul and the mass execution confirmed the group’s fear of people’s rising in the militant-held city.

On Saturday, the terrorists publicly amputated the right hands of three teenagers accused of theft. The incident, reportedly, sparked the outrage of citizens, as the three boys were underage and the penalty was handed down by the group’s so-called Sharia Court without investigation.

Meanwhile, the Iraqi forces managed to slay a Daesh military commander, called Abu Leil, along with four of his companions in Garma district, east of the city of Fallujah in Anbar province. A day earlier, another terrorist commander, called Shobaib Abu Majd al-Kanani, was also killed along with eight other Daesh commanders in an airstrike in Nineveh.

Wreaking havoc in Iraq since June 2014, the terror group has recently been losing ground to the country's army forces.
