Iraq launches major anti-Daesh offensive

Dubbed “Vengeance for the Martyrs,” the operation will see the army, special forces, police and Kurdish peshmerga fighters hunting down Daesh cells in the center of the country.
The operation marked the first time that federal Iraqi forces and the peshmerga were working together since clashes following last year’s Kurdish independence referendum.
