Iraqi F-16 fighter jets carried out two air strikes that destroyed a position used by Daesh terrorist group in the eastern province of Diyala, security officials said on Sunday.
The strikes targeted the group in the Narin area, according to a statement by Iraq's Security Media Cell carried by the official Iraqi News Agency (INA).
The operation was based on intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Directorate and coordinated with the military's aerial reconnaissance and surveillance center.
The Security Media Cell said the position was completely destroyed but gave no details on casualties. It said further information would be released later.
The strikes came less than two weeks after the US-led coalition's mission against Daesh terrorist group in Iraq officially ended on September 30, nearly 12 years after its launch.
Iraq declared victory over Daesh terrorist group in December 2017 after retaking all territory held by the group, although Iraqi forces have continued operations against its remaining remnants.
