Changes for October 1 update: The Peshmerga and Iraqi Sunni tribes supported by U.S. airstrikes cleared the area of Rabia on the Iraq-Syria border.
The Peshmerga and Iraqi Shi’a militias also launched an operation to clear areas surrounding the Daquq district south of Kirkuk which is located on
the Kirkuk-Baghdad highway. Daquq is also home to Shi’a religious shrines.
