Iraq

Hospital officials said that 722 people have been killed during military shelling of Fallujah since the Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham and allied tribes took control of the city. Security forces killed 16 ISIS fighters in Fallujah and nine “militants” north of Baqubah. Iraq will purchase $195 in weapons from Iran in violation of UN sanctions.
