IRAQ-UNREST-AMERLI

An Iraqi fighter guards a front line position flying the Iraqi flag in the Anjana area ten kilometres south of the town of Amerli on September 1, 2014 after Iraqi forces broke the jihadist siege on the Shiite town, in Salaheddin province, the previous day, where thousands of mainly Shiite Turkmen residents have been trapped for more than two months with dwindling food and water supplies. The capture of the town is the biggest offensive success for the Iraqi government since militants led by the Sunni Islamic State (IS) jihadist group overran large areas of five provinces in June, sweeping security forces aside.
