Abadi, at the time, described the latest gain as a \u201cvictory not just of Iraq but of the whole world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHawijah lies between the two major routes north from Baghdad, to the second city Mosul, and to Kirkuk City and the semi-autonomous Kurdish region.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe most decisive blow to Daesh, however, came in July, when Iraqi forces liberated the northern city of Mosul, used to be Daesh\u2019s de facto capital in the Arab country, after being under the control of the terror group for the previous three years. The battle for recapturing Daesh\u2019s last urban bastion lasted for nine months.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tEarlier in the day, the Iraqi army announced that the air force warplanes had conducted precision airstrikes against Daesh positions in a road linking the small town of Akashat\u00a0to the militant-held town of al-Qaim, located nearly 400\u00a0kilometers northwest of\u00a0the capital Baghdad, killing at least 17 terrorists.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Takfiri terrorists swept through parts of northern and western Iraq in June 2014. The terrorists then began a reign of terror across the captured areas, committing crimes against all ethnic and religious communities in Iraq, including Shias, Sunnis, Kurds, Christians and others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>madaresharghi Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi says the Daesh Takfiri terrorists group will be totally defeated in the Arab country until the end of the current year.
