Iraqi F-16 aircraft conducted two precise airstrikes today, Thursday, targeting a terrorist cell, including a key leader, in the South Bahrez area of Diyala Governorate. The operation followed accurate intelligence from the Military Intelligence Directorate regarding a terrorist cell's presence in the Diyala Operations Command sector. An intensive aerial surveillance and reconnaissance plan was then developed over several days, coordinated by the Joint Operations Command's Targeting Cell and the Directorate. Upon confirming the cell's location, which comprised two terrorists, one a significant ISIS leader, F-16 jets successfully executed the two airstrikes. Immediately after the strikes, a ground force quickly deployed to the target area for search and clearance operations. Security forces reaffirm their commitment to relentlessly pursuing terrorist remnants and destroying their strongholds wherever found, emphasizing that victory consistently accompanies their efforts.
