The Islamic State remains barely active in Iraq. For the 14th week in a row security incidents were in single digits marking the lowest level of violence in Iraq since 2003.
During the first week of May there were just 2 incidents. For 16 of 17 weeks in 2023 incidents have been in single digits. For 14 of those weeks there have been 5 or fewer attacks.
From May 1-7 there was one incident in Diyala and one in Salahaddin. They left 1 dead and 1 wounded.
In Diyala a civilian was injured in an armed attack in the Muqdadiya district in the center of the province. An IED killed a shepherd in the Shirqat district of northern Salahaddin. Neither incident was offensive in nature and both were in rural areas which is the only place the Islamic State currently operates in. Both attacks were likely aimed at keeping people out of IS territory.
