Battlefield Iraq: Heavy Clashes And Fighting Between Insurgents And Iraqi Army In The Anbar Province

Duration: 30:38
Updated: 20 Jan 2014

Battlefield Iraq Heavy Clashes And Fighting Between Insurgents And Iraqi Army In The Anbar Province. Heavy Fighting Firefights And Clashes In Iraqs Anbar Province. Since 2014 the Anbar Province is place of fierce fighting between Sunni Iraqi Militias and the Iraqi Army. The main area of the clashes are the citys Ramadi and Falluja where a strong sunni population is located. According to Officials and witnesses, the Iraq government mainly has lost control over the strategic citys, west of Baghdad. The renewed violence in the Sunni province has raised concern about the stability of the government amid dueling claims by the terror group and security forces over who was in control of Falluja and Ramadi. Al-Qaeda black flags have been seen on government and police vehicles captured by the fighters. The army has besieged Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province, and has launched air strikes on the city. Security forces backed by tanks on battled militants in Iraq's Anbar province, where fighting has displaced thousands and sparked warnings of rights abuses and a worsening humanitarian crisis. Some of the most significant fighting appeared to be in Falluja, where the U.S. military fought one of the bloodiest battles of the Iraq war, with militants planting al Qaeda flags on buildings. Gunmen calling themselves the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant, formerly known as al Qaeda in Iraq, took to a stage before thousands of Sunnis following Friday prayers in Falluja. The takeover of Fallujah and parts of Ramadi is the first time that tribal fighters have exercised such open control in major Iraqi cities since the height of the bloody insurgency that followed the US-led invasion of 2003. The fighting has left more than a hundred people dead and forced thousands of Falluja's residents to flee the city, to Baghdad, northern Iraq and the southern city of Karbala, where Shiite leaders are hosting the displaced families in housing built for religious pilgrims. The United States said it would speed up its deliveries of missiles and surveillance drones to Iraq as the Baghdad government battles a resurgence of Al-Qaeda linked militants. Iraq's prime minister has urged residents and tribes in Anbar province to "expel" al-Qaeda-linked fighters to avoid an all-out battle - remarks that may signal an imminent military move to retake the former insurgent stronghold. The Insurgents mainly ambushing Iraqi Army convoys in urban areas and attacking small check points and police stations with small arms, rpgs and ieds. The Iraqi Army repels with Air Strikes and armored infantry units. The ISIL rebels were trying to bring the battle to the cities of Anbar and Fallujah because there's no security there and they know they will be thoroughly defeated in the desert. The Iraqi civil war never really ended it just went off the boil for a while. Last year, the heat was turned back to high, with the number of civilian deaths from political violence doubling to roughly 8,000 people over the previous year, the highest civilian death toll since at least 2008. Officials have blamed the upsurge in violence to a resurgent Al-Qaeda emboldened by the civil war in neighbouring Syria, but the government has itself faced criticism for not doing enough to address the concerns of Iraq's disaffected Sunni Arab minority ahead of April elections.

Iraqi army makes gains in fight against ISIL

Duration: 2:18
Updated: 06 Dec 2014

The Iraqi army, in cooperation with Shia volunteer forces and Sunni tribes, continue to push back militants on several fronts. A source in Salahuddin province said several militants were killed by Iraqi forces after repelling an attack on Balad. The town, which lies some 80 km south of Tikrit, has been witnessing several attacks by militants with mortar shells and heavy weapons in a bid to advance in the province. The source said the security forces also managed to destroy vehicles belonging to ISIL. A number of militants were able to flee the area but left their weapons and belongings. Iraqi army forces are taking control of the areas near the city of Yathreb in Salahuddin province. In the city of Tikrit, a wide military operation is underway to cleanse the area from terrorist groups. Elsewhere in Anbar province, government forces were able to repel an attack on the city of Ramadi, pushing ISIL militants away from the government complex. The Takfiri militants have been trying for the past two week to regain control of the government complex and advance in the provincial capital. US-led coalition warplanes launched airstrikes against ISIL positions in the north of the country. Reports said the coalition was able to inflict heavy losses on the militants. It seems the Iraqi army is making headway in its fight against ISIL militants. Analysts say the battle in Salahuddin will be over soon, after the liberation of Dhiala province from the Takfiri militants. However, the operations in Anbar may take some time.

Iraqi Militants In Heavy Clashes With The Iraqi Army In Anbar Province

Duration: 9:00
Updated: 13 Jan 2014

The Iraq government has lost control of the strategic city of Falluja, west of Baghdad, say officials and witnesses. Al-Qaeda-linked militants now control the south of the city. An Iraqi reporter there says tribesmen allied with al-Qaeda hold the rest of Falluja. The United States said it would speed up its deliveries of missiles and surveillance drones to Iraq as the Baghdad government battles a resurgence of Al-Qaeda linked militants. The White House, meanwhile, dismissed claims that the fighting, which has seen militants retake the city of Fallujah, was a result of President Barack Obama's decision to withdraw US troops. Two Iraqi Army soldiers were wounded when an Improvised Explosive Device exploded to the north of Babel province showing that the fighting is spreading over Iraq. "Unidentified gunmen emplaced a bomb nearby a security checkpoint, that belongs to the Iraqi Army/ 31st Brigade/ exploded at the entrance of Mussayib district of northern Hilla," noting that "The explosion of the IED resulted in wounding two soldiers of the security checkpoint.""The security forces blocked off the explosion area and transported the wounded soldiers to the hospital for treatment," The house of Fallujah Police Commander was detonated by gunmen on Monday. "The house of the Colonel Mohamed Allawi, the police commander of Fallujah Police Forces, was detonated by gunmen," noting that "The explosion resulted in huge material damages to the house.""The explosion did not cause any human causalities since the house was empty at the explosion time," Map of Falluja: http://adf.ly/bsdWJ Map of Ramadi: http://adf.ly/bsdcQ Like Our Facebook Page: http://on.fb.me/1h2gWju Subscribe To WarClashes: http://bit.ly/1jNCmDm

I've barely made a sound for twenty-four hours
But what's to say
When all that's inside is poison to everyone

Start a sick cult on mysterious islands
Or run away
And tell the whole world there's anger in all of us

But will I only come out
To a bigger room

And anything that we cannot find
Won't you help me find
A way out
Some exits

Wrapped in a whistle

Maybe I've always been
Stronger to question

It's close to midnight
Something evil's lurking in the dark
Under the moonlight
You see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralyzed
This is thriller, thriller night
And no-ones going to save you from the beast about to strike
It's thriller, thriller night
You're fighting for your life inside a killer thriller tonight
Night creatures call
And the dead start to walk in their masquerade
There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time
This is the end of your life
They're out to get you
There's demons closing in on every side
They will possess you
Unless you change that number on your dial
Now is it time
For you and I to cuddle close together
All through the night
I'll save you from the terrors on the screen
I'll make you see
It's thriller, thriller night
'Cause I can throw more than any ghoul would rather dare try
It's thriller, thriller night
So let me hold you tight and share a killer chiller tonight
Darkness falls across the land
The midnight hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorise your neighbourhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse's shell
The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of fourty thousand years
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist

And thoughts to heaven
Oh foolish boy

To live my life

For all you've yet to know
Coma boy
A bloated rich endeavour
Unnecessary care
Something I should bury
Or something I should share
Listen for doubtful ramblings
And you'll find me there
Come bury your soul with me
I know I'd like a conscious life
I don't know how to get there
I don't know how to get there
So keep me right
We're wasting time
I don't know how to get there
And I don't know how...
Awaken
Stand up and and fight
For all you've yet to know
Coma boy
It's not something to love or hate
But don't you dare go throw it away
May you be all you can
