Iraqi security forces, in collaboration with Kurdish Asayish units, arrested 21 suspected members of the Islamic State (ISIS) in Sulaimani province, Rudaw news agency reported yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The arrests were made following judicial approvals, targeting individuals accused of terrorism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
