On Sunday, the Security Media Cell announced that two soldiers were killed and three wounded in an "ISIS" attack in Kirkuk.

The cell said in a statement: "Elements of ISIS terrorist gangs attacked one of the first secret points, in the third regiment, in Brigade 45 of Division 11, in the village of Tal Diab in the Daquq district within the section of the advance headquarters in the governorate of Kirkuk."

The attack by ISIS mercenaries comes after escalating tension between Washington and Tehran, following the killing of Qassem Soleimani, and Iran's threats to retaliate.
