ERBIL — The insurgents of the Islamic State (IS) temporarily blocked the main road between the disputed province of Kirkuk and Iraqi capital Baghdad overnight on Saturday.

The jihadists raided the highway and opened fire at cars randomly near the village of Maftul at around 10 pm (Erbil time), Karzan Mohammed, a driver in the area, told BasNews.

He noted that the militants were riding a motorbike when they attacked the main road.
