Eine Schweinerei: Neue anti-IS Brigade im Irak

Von

Aus Kirkuk im Irak werden erste Erfolge einer neuen anti-IS Einheit gemeldet:

Three militants loyal to the Islamic State group (ISIS) have been killed by wild boars as they planned to ambush Iraqi tribesmen opposed to the group, according to a local anti-ISIS leader.

At least eight ISIS fighters had reportedly taken cover among dense reeds in Iraq's al-Rashad region, about 55 miles southwest of Kirkuk, in preparation for a surprise attack on local anti-ISIS tribesman when a herd of wild boars attacked the jihadists on Sunday, killing three. The militants likely disturbed the notoriously short-tempered animals, said Sheikh Anwar al-Assi, a chief of the local Ubaid tribe and head of the group of local tribesmen who took up arms after ISIS took control of the nearby town of Hawija.

Von einem Wildschein getötet zu werden. Kann es etwas schlimmeres geben für einen Kämpfer des Islamischen Staates?

Wie wäre es deshalb mit einer neuen Kampagne: Zehn Euro für den Wildschweinwiderstand im Irak?
