Iraqi armed forces have come under attack from Islamic State (ISIS) militants in southern Daquq, Kirkuk province on two consecutive nights over the weekend, killing four soldiers and wounding three others.
Militants move brazenly through southern Daquq. Villagers from the area are abandoning their homes in fear.
In Anana, the last Kurdish inhabited village in the southernmost region of Daquq, villagers say they are taking defense into their own hands.
However, Iraqi Operations Command in Kirkuk has downplayed ISIS activities, saying they are not affecting the security and stability of the province.
