| (Iraqi News) |
Violence in Iraq remained extremely low during the fourth week of April. This was despite the Islamic State recently announcing a new offensive. IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi also made a video appearance, the first since 2014 that might coincide with the campaign. At the same time, the group’s plans might have been disrupted by a raid by the Iraqi forces into one of the insurgents’ headquarters resulting in the low numbers.
From April 22-28, 2019 there were a total of 19 incidents
reported in Iraq. One was a mass
grave of Yazidis executed by IS being exhumed in the Sinjar district in
west Ninewa. Ninewa with 9 incidents had the most of the five provinces that
reported violence during the week.

There were 45 deaths and 15 wounded reported during the
week. 35 bodies of Yazidis were found leaving just 10 violent deaths during the
week. In total, 1 Iraqi Security Forces (ISF), 1 Hashd al-Shaabi and 43
civilians died and 2 ISF, 3 Hashd and 10 civilians were injured during the
week. Ninewa with 46 casualties, 11 that happened during the week had the most
in the country.
At the start of April the Islamic State announced
a new offensive called Revenge of the Levant. This week Abu Bakr al-Baghdad
appeared in a
video, the first time he’s been seen publicly since 2014 when he declared
the return of the caliphate in Mosul. The two could very well be related. At
the same time, attacks have been very low in Iraq after a surge in the 2nd
week of the month. The Iraqi forces conducted a raid into the Hamrin mountain
and found an IS base along with a trove of documents that covered its
leadership and plans for the spring-summer. That could have disrupted this new
campaign. At the same time, there is always an ebb and flow to violence, so
things could pick up in the coming weeks.
Anbar had just one incident when some IS fighters attempted
to infiltrate
Ramadi and were caught by the local security forces. Incidents in Anbar
have widely fluctuated over the months.
IS was carrying out small attacks in Baghdad over the last
five weeks, but no incidents were reported from April 22-28. It’s important for
IS to return to the capital if they want to challenge the government, retain
their credibility amongst jihadists and to gain more revenue from extortion,
kidnappings, and other criminal activity.
Diyala, Kirkuk, Ninewa, Salahaddin remain the core of IS
territory. In Diyala there were 6 incidents. That included an attack
upon a village in the Abu Saida district in the west, the first such
incident of the month. Four other attacks were in the Khanaqin district in the
northeast, which has become the insurgents’ favorite target since the central
government took control of the area from the Kurds in the aftermath of their
independence referendum. Baghdad doesn’t have the forces to properly secure it
and the ones there don’t coordinate and are sometimes in competition with each
other. People in a town also in the northeast said they’d created
a night guard to protect against IS. In rural areas the Iraqi forces are
only out during the day, usually manning checkpoints, leaving the twilight
hours to the insurgents. That has left many towns and villages defenseless,
leading to things like this one trying to protect itself. Kirkuk had just two
incidents, both IEDs. Ninewa had the most incidents with 9. South of Mosul two
suicide bombers were
killed in separate incidents, and there was a gun
battle with militants during a security sweep. Two villages were also
attacked, one in the Baaj
district in the west and another in the Hamam
al-Alil district in the south. The government has also started a process to
exhume mass graves in the Sinjar district, which was how the 35 bodies of
Yazidis were discovered. An MP from Ninewa sent
a letter to the prime minister saying that the militants were kidnapping
people and attacking villages in Baaj forcing people to flee. Al
Mada also reported that 30 towns in the west around Tal Afar had been
abandoned over the last 10 months due to IS operations. In both instances the
lack of security forces were cited as the reason why the Islamic State was able
to do this to residents. Finally, in Salahaddin there was just one incident
when an IED
went off in the Baiji district. The stories from Diyala and Ninewa remind people
that attacks are not the only metric to measure the rebuilding of the
insurgency. The government’s lack of presence in rural areas is giving IS a
free reign to regroup, and create bases. That is especially important because
it can only rebuild by creating a new cadre of fighters who need training space
to hone their skills. Forcing people out of villages, provides those areas.
Those towns are also providing revenues for the group as it extorts them and
charges taxes adding another important element while it tries to make a
comeback in Iraq.
