Iraqi Forces Ready to Liberate Fallujah from ISIS Terrorists

Alwaght- Iraqi military reinforcements have arrived on the outskirts of the city of Fallujah in a final move set to liberate the city from ISIS terrorists.
The Commander of the local militia known al-Hashed al-Shaabi in Anbar Province announced on Sunday the arrival of military reinforcements from Baghdad in the outskirts of the city of Fallujah (62 km west of Baghdad) in preparation to storm the city, while emphasized that the troops are waiting to start the battle of liberation.
Jumaili said in a press statement that, “The combat and military forces began to deploy its troops and snipers, as well as deploying tanks, armor and artillery units,” pointing out that, “These forces are waiting for the final orders to start the liberation battle of Fallujah from the so-called ISIS.”
Jumaili added, “The security forces from the army, police and tribal fighters worked on establishing a barrier in the regions of al-Kayfiya and Shihabi that extends to seven kilometers, in order to separate and isolate ISIS areas in al-Karma east of Fallujah.”
“The security forces advanced into a depth of 5 km in the center of al-Karma District, and deployed security detachments in those areas,” Jumaili continued.
Fallujah became the focus of the anti-ISIS battle after Iraqis liberated Anbar’s provincial capital of Ramadi in December 2015.
The Iraqi military says control over Fallujah could pave the way for a final push to flush the terrorists out of the major city of Mosul, the capital of Nineveh Province, which was overtaken by ISIS Takfiri terrorists in the summer of 2014.
