SULAIMANI (ESTA) — Iraqi Security forces killed an Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist in Tarmiyah district north of Baghdad on Tuesday. 

The forces have also destroyed a hideout in the vicinity of the operation with the confiscation of their weapons, the Iraqi News Agency (INA) reported.

ISIS controlled roughly a third of Iraq between 2014 and 2017. Iraqi forces and Kurdish troops backed by U.S.-led Coalition forces as well as Iran-backed Shia militias defeated the militant group in 2017, but its members still roam areas of northern Iraq and northeastern Syria.
