Iraqi troops conquer border on IS

The terrorist group of Islamic State is increasingly being pursued in Iraq.

The Akashat area in western Iraq is rich in phosphate and uranium mines. Now that Akashat is in possession, hopes to enable the Iraqi army to succeed after the conquest of cities occupied by IS in the Euphrates Valley. Akashat is located a few kilometers from the border with Syria.

In Iraq, the terrorist organization has already lost a lot of land in recent months, including the Mosul bastion.
