"Daesh uses chemical agents against Iraqi villages"

Iraqi officials say Daesh terrorists have used poisonous substance in shelling a village in the northern province of Kirkuk. Kirkuk Governor, Najimuddin Karim, says the agents were used as Daesh intensified its shelling on the village of Taza during the past six weeks. Karim said hospitals in Kirkuk confirmed that some of the wounded carried symptoms of chemical substances. He made the comments at a joint press conference with Turkmen parliamentarian, Hassan Touran. The MP said Daesh Takfiri terrorists fired more than 50 rockets possibly contaminated with mustard and chlorine to the village. Meanwhile, Iraqi intelligence officials say U-S Special Forces in the country captured the head of ISIL’s chemical weapons unit in a raid last month.
