BEIRUT, LEBANON (1:00 P.M.) - Iraqi Prime Minister Adil 'Abdel-Mahdi said on Tuesday that his country's forces managed to foil an infiltration attempt by the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/IS/Daesh) at the Syrian border this week.
According to 'Abdel-Mahdi, the Iraqi forces killed several Daesh terrorists that were caught trying to infiltrate into the Al-Anbar Governorate from Syria's Deir Ezzor province.
The Daesh terrorists were attempting to advance into Al-Anbar after seizing several areas from the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in southeast Deir Ezzor.
However, Iraq's Hashd Al-Sha'abi forces quickly reinforced the border region in order to prevent Daesh's expansion into the Al-Anbar Governorate.
