MESOP TODAYS BACKGROUNDER : Mariwan Naqshibandi of Ministry of Religious Affairs told that some Kurdish ex-IS fighters are trying to escape to Europe from Libya.
He also claimed the IS killed around 18 Kurdish IS fighters, suspecting them of working for the Kurdish intelligence – He says half of the Kurdish IS-fighters are now killed by either Peshmerga, or coalition airstrikes. – After this IS dissolved a Kurdish IS group, and separated Kurdish IS fighters, and send them off to several frontlines – This might explain why Kurdish IS fighters are now killed in places like Salahadin province (Tikrit, Bayji, etc).
