Iraqi fighter jets fired concussion missiles at Tikrit, Saladin province, Friday with the aim to detonate improvised explosive devices (IEDs), local and security sources said.
The sources said that army corps of engineers defused 163 IEDs during the military operation to liberate Tikrit from Daesh militants, adding the ongoing offensive was run according to a set plan.
The troops surrounded Daesh militants at the presidential palaces in the city, the sources said, and cautiously advanced toward them due to the intensity of IEDs.
Meantime, the Iraqi security forces imposed a curfew in Ramadi city, in anticipation of any potential retaliatory attacks by Deash militants.
