The Iraqi popular forces, backed by the local policemen, launched a military campaign to eradicate the remnants of ISIL terrorists in Himreen Mountain Ranges in Salahuddine province after intelligence reports emphasized that militants from the takfiri group were still in the area.

The commander of the military campaign maintained that the targeted area is rugged in nature, which made it a safe haven for ISIL terrorists, adding that the operations will be largescale and intensive to achieve the set goal.
