During the fourth week of August 2015 the security situation
in Iraq was unchanged from the week before. The number of attacks and
casualties were just about the same. The Islamic State (IS) continued with its
latest car bomb campaign launching almost one hundred during the week. The
government continued to push into Ramadi and fight for control of Baiji in
Salahaddin, while the Kurds began a new campaign, which recaptured several
towns in southern Kirkuk.
From August 22-28, 2015 there were 136 reported attacks.
That was the exact same number as the week before. So far this month there has
been an average of 19.9 attacks per day, almost exactly the same as July’s 19.6
average. There is always more violence in Iraq then what gets in the media.
Those incidents led to 342 killed and 296 wounded. The
former consisted of 12 Sahwa, 19 Peshmerga, 32 Hashd al-Shaabi, 114 members of
the Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) and 165 civilians. The former was made up of 2
Hashd, 6 Sahwa, 29 Peshmerga, 73 ISF, and 186 civilians. The 638 total
casualties were slightly below August 15-21’s 699. The number of dead and
wounded is always undercounted in Iraq. There are many incidents that don’t get
covered and the government is actively suppressing losses to maintain morale.
By province, there were 102 killed in Ninewa, 83 in Anbar,
73 in Salahaddin, 58 in Baghdad, 21 in Kirkuk, 4 in Babil, and 1 in Diyala.
Usually the capital province leads the way in fatalities, but IS executions in
Ninewa and heavy fighting in Anbar and Salahaddin made Baghdad fourth overall
this week.

After taking one day off on August 22, the Islamic State
launched 93 vehicle borne improvised explosive devices (VBIEDs) during the week.
84 of those were destroyed before reaching their target. IS has been using the
vast majority of these bombs to repel the on going security offensives in
Anbar, which had a total of 21 car bombs, and in Salahaddin with 62. Another 6
were destroyed in Diyala, two went off in Baghdad and one was dismantled, and
another suicide bomber exploded in Kirkuk. All of those together led to 37
deaths and 50 wounded, but the real numbers are likely higher.
The government’s plans for Anbar appeared to be disjointed
during the week. There was continued news of progress in Ramadi where the joint
forces pushed into more of the city’s suburbs. At the same time, new security
operations were announced in the west around Haditha,
Hit,
and Baghdadi.
There was another offensive in Garma predating all of these as well, which has
been deadlocked for months now. Baghdad only has roughly half the forces it
used to attack Tikrit committed to Fallujah-Ramadi, which has led to constant
problems holding territory it has cleared. For example, another operation in
East Husaiba was reported on August 25, the fifth since July. Sending forces
out to the west only increases these manpower difficulties.
In Diyala, a new operation was started to clear the
insurgent base of the Hamrin
Mountains. 30
villages were said to have been freed in the process. This area has never
been firmly under government control leading to these sweeps. After the
offensives are over, the militants move right back in.
The Peshmerga attacked the Daquq district of southern Kirkuk
province during the week. Press reports had them freeing fourteen villages. The
operation was meant to help bolster the defense of Kirkuk city. 11 Peshmerga
were killed and 24 reportedly injuring as a result. This was a rather rare
occurrence as the Kurds have dug into their positions and showed no real
motivation to move forward having captured most of the disputed territories
they seek to annex.
IS continued with its executions in Ninewa. During the week,
86 people were killed in Mosul, Qayara, and Issa. That included members of the
security forces, a reporter, three lawyers, and nine people accused of being
homosexuals.
The ISF and Hashd were still trying to take back lost ground
in Baiji and the refinery there. The amount of propaganda being dispensed by
those groups often makes it difficult to determine whether real progress is
being made there or not. For example, on July
2 90% of the district was supposedly cleared but IS still held
60% of the refinery. By July 21 the
center of Baiji town was reached along with the northern section of the
refinery. Despite those advances the joint forces said that it was now in
control of 85%
of the area. Two days later a Hashd spokesman claimed it had 80%
of the refinery, but then Asaib Ahl al-Haq (AAH) contradicted that by saying
only 40%
of the facility was cleared. Finally, by the end of July all but one
neighborhood was declared freed in Baiji town. After that IS counter
attacked to try to draw forces away from the Anbar operation. Early in August
IS took back several
neighborhoods
and surrounding
towns, forcing AAH to send in reinforcements.
Despite these setbacks the joint forces continued to claim that they were
advancing with a series of contradictory announcements. For example, the Baiji
Refinery went from 40%
cleared to 60% to 70% at the beginning of
August down to 50%
towards the end of the month. Similarly 80%-90%
of the district was claimed freed with only
three neighborhoods of the town still under insurgent control, only to have
reports putting that figure at only half
of Baiji being under government control. This is all part of the victory
narrative being promoted by government forces, which continually exaggerate
their accomplishments. On the other hand, IS has consistently used attacks in
Salahaddin to distract Baghdad away from its real goal, which is the taking of
Anbar. The government played right into the insurgent’s hands with Prime
Minister Abadi saying
that taking Baiji was crucial in the war against IS and Hashd elements sending
in more forces to retake the area during August. In fact, Baiji has lost its
value after IS destroyed most of the facility after Ramadi was taken in May.
There are questions of whether the facility will ever be used again. Despite
that, Baghdad continues to throw forces into the area whenever IS threatens it,
which will not end as the group controls the surrounding towns. The district
has already changed hands several times, something that will continue into the
foreseeable future.
