British counter-terror forces are heading to Iraq to train commandos to smash Islamic State terrorists.
They were invited to assist Iraq’s elite “Golden Division” in its fight against the resurgent network.
General Abdul Wahab al-Saadi – head of the Iraq Counter Terror Service – told the Daily Mirror: “We have arranged to have a new team of British counter terror experts here to help with our training. We are giving up our blood to fight Islamic State, we are on the frontline against this threat and are helping protect countries like the United Kingdom.”
