The Iraqi army has repulsed Daesh from Kirkuk, where terrorists are conducting simultaneous attacks, and have killed 27 people after dozens of the terrorists sneaked into the city disguised as refugees.



The attacks were conducted as the Daesh terrorist organization attempted to retaliate for the Mosul operation.



The Daesh group was believed to have sneaked into Kirkuk from Havija, which is located 55 kilometers from the city.



The incidents triggered a curfew, by which life visibly stopped on the streets and even Friday prayers couldn't be performed.
