Nineveh Operations Command has announced on Monday that the Iraqi security forces have shot down a drone belonging to ISIS, south of the city of Mosul.

“ISIS was using the drone to monitor the front lines of Iraqi army,” the statement added.

The Islamic State terrorist group in Iraq and Syria took over the city of Mosul in 10 June 2014, before extending its terrorist activity to other areas in Iraq. The terror group also committed many violations, genocides and crimes against humanity in Iraq and Syria; Irqi News reported.
