Samarra
There were major military developments in the Samarra area, mostly west and southwest of the city, and mostly negative for Iraq.
A security source says Daesh launched a massive attack on Samarra District, gained ground in the Abbasiya and Al-Huwaish areas, and captured a section of the road between Samarra and Tikrit near Mkaishifa. Daesh used several vehicle bombs and sneaked through small roads to attack Iraqi locations. A source in Balad hospital says the hospital received dozens of Iraqi fighters killed or wounded in Samarra. [Ghad] A security source said 11 PMF fighters were killed and 17 wounded in the battles in Samarra. [Ghad]

The source says 2,000 PMF fighters arrived in Al-Fatha to support Iraqi forces there and more troops were deployed to Al-Alam. [Baghdadia] The main attacks were in Samarra and west.
A security source says Daesh attacked Iraqi forces in Abbasiya and Sharif Abbas northwest of Samarra city with 4 vehicle bombs. Iraqi forces destroyed 3 of them but the fourth exploded, killing 10 Iraqi fighters. The source also says Daesh sneaked into the Al-Hawi and Al-Huwaish areas close to Samarra city and burned a security forces vehicle. He says the IAA is flying over the area but has not attacked, because Daesh members are hidden in civilian houses. [Mada]
Daesh says its terrorists launched a massive attack on an Iraqi Army location in Al-Huwaish and burned 3 Humvees. [Dump]

A security source says Iraqi forces tightened their security procedures at Samarra’s entrances. He also says security forces and PMFs gathered in Samarra to protect the shrines. [Baghdadia]
DaeshDaily comment. An Iraq expert among our sources says Daesh has been in position to rocket the Shia shrines in Samarra for a long time but they didn’t do it, fearing a massive Shia reaction against Sunnis in Baghdad and other places, similar to what happened in 2006, which cost AQI a lot of its support within Sunni communities. However, Daesh may now feel that the danger to their positions from Iraqi forces’ advances in Anbar and northern Salahuddin outweighs that risk. The Samarra attack also shows Daesh can depend on its sleeper cells and can disappear and reappear very easily in many areas.
The Mayor of Samarra says the situation in the District is “normal,” there is no curfew, and the government employees went to their work today. He says 2 mortar shells fell on the city, wounding at least one civilian. He also says a few Daesh terrorists sneaked into Al-Huwaish and occupied 2 civilian houses during the night and in the morning clashes erupted with Iraqi forces. He says the troops are dealing with the issue and Daesh did not manage to control high buildings or deploy snipers. [Baghdadia]
A security source says many people from Samarra went to the IFP’s 5th Division headquarters to volunteer to defend their city. [Baghdadia] A security source claims the Joint Operations Command sent weapons and ammunition to those volunteering to fight Daesh. [Baghdadia]

DaeshDaily comment. The Strategic Line here means the oil pipeline from the refinery city of Baiji to Anbar province.

A security source says an Iraqi Army major and five soldiers were killed in clashes with Daesh terrorists in the Thirthar area southwest of Samarra. [Mada]
DaeshDaily comment. The huge Thirthar Lake is west of Samarra across the desert, but most of it is in Anbar. The attacks reportedly came from west of Samarra, from the Daesh-controlled and forbidding desert area. One likely purpose of the Daesh assault west of Samarra is to reopen a road across the desert to Falluja, to offset the loss of supply routes cut off by government forces.
Elsewhere in Salahuddin

A security source says unknown armed men shot and killed a school principal in Tuz. [Sumaria]
BAGHDAD
PM Abadi meets in his office with the American Special Envoy Brett McGurk and Ambassador Jones to discuss the war on Daesh and the American support for Iraq. The Envoy said the US is committed to support Iraq and all the support will be supervised and approved exclusively by Baghdad. [Sumaria]
A State of Law CoR member says PM Abadi invited SoL members for a meeting this evening to discuss the salary schedule and the reforms. [Sumaria]
Another SoL member says the SoL requested the meeting with Abadi and that there is no decision as yet on whether to withdraw the authorization regarding the reforms. [Sumaria]
A third SoL Representative refuted yesterday’s reported statements about withdrawing the reform authorization from PM Abadi, describing them as just “leaks and individual behavior,” and says the Dawa Party has not made a decision. He also says the Chairman of the SoL bloc in the CoR didn’t even know about this issue. [Sumaria]
Another SoL member says withdrawing the reform authorization from Abadi was intended to correct the political process. She says she has no idea how the statement against Abadi reached the media because the SoL had put it on hold. [Rudaw]
The SoL spokesman denied the reports about issuing a statement against Abadi. [Maalomah]
A CoR member close to Abadi says the SoL is angry with Abadi for many things, including his statement against Maliki, not cooperating with the Quadripartite Coalition, and suggesting Emad Al-Kharsan as the Chief of COMSEC. [Mada]
DaeshDaily comment. Yesterday’s anti-Abadi leaks from State of Law sources apparently brought out the political caution flag from other members of the Coalition, including Dawa, who don’t share the same opinion. If there is significant sentiment for replacing the Prime Minister, who comes from their own party, the outcome may depend on the position taken by Grand Ayatollah Sistani. If Sistani doesn’t support dumping him, the PM’s critics in State of Law can just follow up today’s denials by saying it wasn’t a real issue. Another possible consideration for the parliamentarians is that dumping Al-Abadi could cause a movement to take the position away from Dawa.
The rapporteur of the CoR’s Finance Committee says the Iraqi government is not going to send the 2016 budget to be read at the CoR yet because it is negotiating a loan with IMF for a loan that might change it a lot. [Rudaw]
The Minister of Finance says Iraq will spend 20% of its budget on Defense. [PUKMedia]
The Chairman of the PUK bloc in the CoR says the new salary schedule in unfair and it has nothing to do with the reforms. She says the PUK supports Speaker Jubouri in opposing the schedule and the government will have to withdraw it because of the political and public pressure. [Ghad]
Government employees from different ministries and agencies demonstrated in Baghdad and other governorates against the new salary schedule. [Baghdadia] [Baghdadia] [Baghdadia] [Baghdadia]
DaeshDaily comment. Government employees are poorly paid but dependent on their government jobs in an economy where the private sector is so small. A high percentage of the budget goes to salaries, and Iraq supports an excessive number of government employees. Iraq’s financial crisis is the apparent reason for proposing a salary schedule with lower salaries, and if changing the salaries is deemed unacceptable, the financial crisis will get that much worse and more and more people may not get paid on time, whatever their salaries.
A Council of Ministers source says PM Abadi didn’t appoint Mr. Emad Dhia Al-Kharsan as the General Secretary of COMSEC. The source says Abadi asked Mr. Kharsan to prepare a study about the work of COMSEC. [Sumaria]
DaeshDaily comment. If he wasn’t really appointed to the position, why didn’t they deny the news reports when they came out instead of waiting until opposition arose to the appointment?
The Head of the Sunni Endowment issues orders to all mosques to open their doors for the displaced families to shelter them from the heavy rains. [Sumaria]

The spokesman of the Judiciary Council says the Central Criminal Court sentenced 3 Daesh members (an Iraqi, a Saudi and a Jordanian) to death. [Baghdadia]
DaeshDaily comment. These terrorism death sentences don’t always get carried out. Many AQI members were caught and sentenced, then sent back to their countries in political deals. Some came back to Iraq like the infamous “living suicide bomber” who killed an entire Iraqi family with a tanker bomb. The then National Security Advisor, Mowaffak Al-Rubaie personally took him and other Saudi terrorists on a plane back to Saudi Arabia, where he “repented” as part of a Saudi government program, then simply traveled to Syria and joined Daesh.

DaeshDaily comment. This report says “armed groups” instead of Daesh.

If true, this is a major development in the Syrian civil war.
