The army helicopters dropped on leaflets from the Army Aviation residents demanding the residents in Jalawla and Saadia northeast of Baquba, capital of Diyala province, to stay away from the headquarters of the IS.
A security source told the National Iraqi News Agency / NINA/ that the leaflets warned the residents to stay away from the headquarters of the IS in preparation for the bombing of these headquarters in the coming period, adding that these warnings came in order not to inflict casualties among the civilians.
He added that the warnings prompted dozens of families to flee their homes and stay away from the headquarters of the IS for fear of exposure to risk of shelling.
