Booby-Trapped Quran Copies Found in Mosul
A source told Kul al-Iraq website that Daesh terrorists had planted bombs in the copies of the Quran and left them in streets and in front of houses in the village of Kan’ous, near Mosul.
The Iraqi army announced the liberation of the village on Wednesday, November 30.
Planting explosives in least expected places, including inside the copies of Islam's holy scripture, is not a new technique employed by the Takfiri terrorists.
Back in June 2015, after flushing out Daesh terrorists from the eastern parts of the Iraq’s Diyala province, Iraqi security forces found a series of booby-trapped Qur'ans in the areas Daesh had fled.
Gruesome violence has plagued the northern and western parts of Iraq ever since Daesh terrorists launched an offensive in June 2014, and took control of portions of Iraqi territory.
The militants have been committing heinous crimes against all ethnic and religious communities in Iraq, including Shias, Sunnis, Kurds, Christians and others.
