The senior Iraqi legislator further unveiled that the government in Baghdad is receiving daily reports from people and security forces in al-Anbar province on numerous flights by the US-led coalition planes that airdrop weapons and supplies for ISIL in terrorist-held areas.

Earlier today, another senior Iraqi provincial official lashed out at Western countries and their regional allies for supporting Takfiri terrorists in Iraq, revealing that US and Israeli-made weapons have been discovered from the areas purged of ISIL terrorists.

weapons air drop Iraq

Hababi said that the coalition's precise air-strikes are launched only in those areas where the Kurdish Pishmarga forces are present, while military strikes in other regions are not so precise.

In late December, the US-led coalition dropped aid to the Takfiri militants in an area north of Baghdad.


Field sources in Iraq told Al-Manar TV that international coalition airplanes dropped aid to terrorist militants in Balad, an area which lies in Salahuddin province, north of Baghdad.


In October, a high-ranking Iranian commander also slammed the US for providing aid supplies to ISIL, adding that US claims that the weapons were mistakenly airdropped to ISIL were untrue.


"while supplying them with weapons, food and medicine in Jalawla region (a town in Diyala Governorate, Iraq). This explicitly displays the falsity of the coalition's and the US' claims," Deputy Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Brigadier General Massoud Jazayeri, said.


The US claimed that it had airdropped weapons and medical aid to Kurdish fighters confronting ISIL in Kobani, near the Turkish border in northern Syria.


The US Defense Department said that it had airdropped 28 bundles of weapons and supplies, but one of them did not make it into the hands of the Kurdish fighters.


Video footage later showed that some of the weapons the US airdropped were taken by ISIL militants.


The Iranian commander insisted that the US had the necessary intelligence about ISIL's deployment in the region, and that their claims to have mistakenly airdropped weapons to them are as unlikely as they are untrue.
