The Iraqi National Intelligence Service (INIS) recently announced the capture of two key ISIS leaders linked to terrorist operations and propaganda in Fallujah during its occupation by ISIS from 2014 to 2016. This significant operation was carried out outside of Iraq, although the specific location remains undisclosed. The captured individuals, Issam Abd Ali Saedan and Bashir Abdul Ali Saedan, played critical roles in ISIS’s activities in Fallujah, with Issam focusing on media operations and the documentation of terrorist acts, and Bashir overseeing terrorist operations and communication encryption.
Despite the defeat of ISIS’s territorial control in Iraq and Syria, the threat of resurgence remains amid regional instability. However, the overall number of attacks by ISIS has significantly decreased, indicating the effectiveness of counter-terrorism efforts. The discussion on the withdrawal of US-led Coalition forces from Iraq adds a layer of complexity to the security landscape, especially considering the presence of Iran-backed militias in the region.
