Almost 300 ISIS fighters killed: as Iraq forces recapture Dhuluiya town 45 miles north of Baghdad

The Iraqi forces have recaptured the town of Dhuluiya, killing almost 300 ISIS fighters. The raid on the town was made by Government  forces and the Shia  militias on Sunday by helicopter and fighter jets. 

After an overnight battle with the ISIS, by the afternoon of Monday, the militants were confined in a small zone to the north-west where they were surrounded.

The half part of  the town of Dhuluiya was seized by the militants in June this year, and the surrounding southern part of Dhuluiya are the members of Sunni al-Jubouri tribe that refuse to swear allegiance to the militant.
