Kurdish Peshmerga forces have re-taken control of the oil-rich Ain Zala region, located in Nineveh, driving militants of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) out of the strategic location.
The Kurdish forces gained control of vital strategic Ain Zala region northwest of Mosul, where many oil fields are located. The Peshmerga forces continued advancing across Zammar axis, a Peshmerga source said.
On Thursday, the ISIL gunmen set oil wells afire in Ain Zala, causing massive clouds of black smoke covering the scene after the advance of the Peshmerga forces, which seized control of all the oil fields in the region.
