THE STORY
Yesterday, Iraqi forces - supported by US airstrikes - moved in on ISIS in the city of Fallujah.
WHY DO I CARE?
Because Fallujah is a (major) key city close to Baghdad, Iraq’s capital. It was the first important city to fall to ISIS, and the group is believed to have plotted multiple suicide bombings in Baghdad from Fallujah. Not good, especially since at least 20 people were killed in Baghdad yesterday in bombings claimed by ISIS.
