Terrorist was so-called operative of 'financial affairs' of Daesh/ISIS, according to Iraq's Defense Ministry
Two Daesh/ISIS terrorists were held in Iraq's northern city of Mosul, the Defense Ministry said on Saturday.
Among terrorists was a so-called senior operative responsible for the financial affairs of the terror group in Mosul, the ministry said in a statement.
In mid-2014, Daesh/ISIS overran roughly one-third of Iraq, including Mosul.
By late 2017, the Iraqi army -- with the help of the U.S.-led military coalition -- recovered most if not all the territories lost to the terrorist group.
Although officials in Baghdad say Daesh/ISIS presence in the country has been largely eradicated, the terrorist group has continued to stage sporadic attacks in Iraq's Nineveh, Kirkuk, Diyala, Saladin and Anbar provinces.
