Coalition and Iraqi forces carried out airstrikes Tuesday against an island south of Mosul in the Tigris River believed to be a safe haven for the Islamic State group in Iraq.
Fireballs exploded across Qanus Island in Iraq’s Salahuddin province, as plumes of smoke billowed up into the sky, a video posted on Twitter showed. Black-clad Iraqi counter-terrorism troops are seen watching over the operation from the ground.

Where’s the ISIS recruitment-video guy now?
He was the guy who said “We’re having so much fun....”.
He’s probably been dead for a long time.

It used to be an island. Now it’s probable four separate islands. :)
