ERBIL, Iraq (North Press) \u2013 <\/strong>“ISIS may only lost 35% or 40% of its militants, but it lost its economy, weapons and equipment,” said Mu’ayed al-Juhaishi, an Iraqi military analyst on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an exclusive interview with North Press, al-Juhaishi pointed out that the child entered Hawl Camp when he was 10, is now 15 or 16 years old, which means he is a militant now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Thus, Hawl Camp has become a place for producing ISIS,” he added.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“ISIS is still existent in caves in Badoush Mountains, Makhoul Mountains, between Diyala and Khanaqin on the Iraqi-Iranian border, and between Diyala and Kirkuk,” he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The military analyst stated that some countries kept ISIS as a pressure card to use it whenever they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On April 7, the Counter-Terrorism Service (CTS) in Iraq announced the killing of 60 ISIS militants<\/a> during an air raid by the Iraqi forces in Hamrin hills in the central of the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On March 24, the spokesperson of the Iraqi Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief, Yahya Rasoul, announced the killing of 27 ISIS members during the \u201cEager Lion\u201d operation that lasted two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe operation was launched with the participation of Counter-Terrorism Service and Iraqi aircraft in the mountains of Makhmur, southeastern Mosul on March 9 to target ISIS sleeper cells,\u201d Rasoul said in a statement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
