On Tuesday, Amaq Agency announced that “Daesh” executed three of the captured members of the pro-government Popular Mobilization Units (PMU).

The incident took place in the contested town of Qaryat Imam Gharbi, based on the western bank of the Tigris River in Harare province, and saw “Daesh”  insurgents, backed by Saudi Arabia, shoot dead PMU prisoner of war at point-blank range in broad daylight.

“Daesh” overran Qaryat Imam Gharbi (otherwise liberated in August 2016) last week in what appeared to be a direct offensive on the Iraqi Army’s supply line to Mosul. thereafter, PMU and Iraqi soldiers launched a counter-assault, regaining some 40% of the strategic town.
