Foreign Affairs / Iraqi Forces Fall Into Daesh (ISIS) Trap West Of Mosul by Sarwa(m): 5:37pm On Mar 02, 2017
The Iraqi army has been forced to retreat from the neighbourhood of Dawasah, west of Mosul, after falling into a trap set by the so-called Islamic State militant group, a security source revealed on Wednesday. Many casualties resulted from the operation.

The source of the information is a captain in Iraq’s rapid response force, who spoke to Anadolu on condition of anonymity because he is not authorised to speak to the media about this sort of operation.

“The Daesh withdrawal from Dawasah was a trap to lure the army into the neighbourhood,” he said. “The initial reaction of the senior officers was to declare a victory against the militants.”

However, he explained, the Daesh fighters had actually been waiting in tunnels dug for that purpose. “When they emerged, they were able to split the government troops into two groups and attack them from several directions.”

The captain said that requests to allow the army to withdraw were refused by the military high command. “After clashes that lasted for more than six hours, the army collapsed and was forced to withdraw towards Jawsaq, near Mosul international airport.” There were serious material and human losses, he confirmed, including the shooting down of a drone.

Another anonymous security source still operating in a Daesh-controlled area told Anadolu by telephone that “unidentified” aircraft struck Omar Al-Aswad Mosque in south Mosul late on Tuesday night. “Several displaced families live there,” he revealed. “Dozens of unarmed civilians, including women and children, were killed or injured as a result of that raid. Many bodies are still under the rubble.”

Neither the Iraqi army nor the international coalition forces have issued a statement regarding the incidents.

Foreign Affairs / ISIS Threatens China In New Video Showing Chinese Jihadists by Sarwa(m): 5:25pm On Mar 02, 2017
An official ISIS media outlet released a 30 minute video on February 27 that for the first time threatens China with attacks. Along with executions, the video included scenes that purported to show the daily life of its Chinese Muslim fighters.

In one scene, a militant addresses the camera before carrying out an execution, saying “you Chinese people who don’t understand the language of the people, we the soldiers of the Caliphate will come to you to teach you the language of weapons, to spill rivers of blood as revenge against the oppressors.” The man then turns to the victim, who is wearing an orange jumpsuit and is hanging upside down from the ceiling, and slits his throat while a young boy looks on from the side.

Uighurs are a Turkic ethnic group who live mostly in China’s western Xinjiang province. They practice Islam, and are often targeted by the Chinese government for religious and security reasons. Human Rights Watch previously reported on government oppression of the sect, including a recent campaign to confiscate Uighur passports. On February 27 the Chinese army held “anti-terror” rallies in the heart of Xinjiang, assembling over 10,000 troops in the region’s capital.

The new video references Chinese government persecution of the Uighur minority, showing footage of Chinese security forces detaining Muslims.

The video also includes scenes of armed children and teenage boys, undergoing religious and military training. Children are shown training with weapons, and one child soldier simulates the execution of a “prisoner” who is kneeling. In one disturbing scene, a child referred to as Abd al-Rashid al-Turkistani, executes a kneeling prisoner. The child is shown pressing a pistol to the top of his victim’s head, and pulls the trigger.

ISIS has in the past reached out to China’s Uighur population, releasing a video in 2015 calling on them to join the group and move to ISIS territory. According to a 2016 report released by an American think tank, over 100 Chinese Uighurs have joined ISIS.
