According to a report by Entekhab, as translated by IFP, a group of 200 Iranian-Kurdish women are taking part in Mosul Liberation Operation along with Iraqi forces and Kurdish Peshmarga.

Reuters claimed that one of these Iranian women has already been killed in the fight against ISIS.

These women have told Reuters that the ISIS is afraid of women.

Knowing the atrocities the ISIS has carried out against women, these Iranians say the female fighters had made a pact never to allow themselves to be taken captive.

One of them says she is not afraid of ISIS militants even though she has seen what heinous crimes they commit. She said she is resolved to fight the terrorist group after seeing their atrocities.

Egyptian FM May Visit Iran in Near Future

According to a report by Iranian Diplomacy news website¸ as translated by IFP, Tehran and Cairo are going to take effective steps to improve bilateral relations.

Iran’s recent mediation between Egypt and Iraq for an oil contract played a major role in reinforcing Tehran-Cairo ties. Based on the contract, Iraq’s oil will replace that of Saudi Arabia.

Al-Arab further reported that Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry may also pay an official visit to Tehran in the coming days to upgrade the level of ties with Iran.

Iran and Egypt have held no diplomatic ties since 1980 when Cairo offered asylum to the former shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, and maintained peace treaties with Israel.

Egypt is the only Arab country without an embassy in Iran. However, since the official resignation of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in February 2011, relations started to improve significantly.

In April 2012, Iran appointed an ambassador to Egypt.

Following the Egyptian Revolution of 2011, and the appointment of ambassadors after nearly 30 years, Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi made a historic first visit to Iran since the Iranian Revolution for the 2012 Non-Aligned Movement summit on 30 August.

Soon after Egyptian Morsi’s visit, it was decided to reestablish bilateral diplomatic relations, with rededication of embassy locations. A first ambassador was nominated to represent Egypt in Iran.

In March 2013, direct flights between two countries were reinstated.

Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, also visited Egypt in February 2013, making him the first Iranian president to travel to Egypt since the Iranian Revolution.

Addressing the opening ceremony of the 22nd Press Exhibition in Tehran, President Hassan Rouhani said that “if terrorism is attractive for the society, and if people – even part of them – are keen on the call of terrorists, neither foreign policy nor military power can resolve the issue of security.”

According to a report by Al Alam, as translated by IFP, President Rouhani referred to the fall of Mosul as an example, and said, “Why should a big city with a population of 1.5 million and strong armed forces fall in a very short time?”

“Was the fall of Mosul caused by the terrorists’ superior military power compared with the army deployed in the city? Or was it caused by people’s decreased devotion to Baghdad?”

“Mosul’s emotional and political link with Baghdad had been cut off. [Under those conditions in Mosul] not only ISIS, but any other armed group could overcome Mosul, not necessarily with a black banner, but even with a white flag,” Rouhani went on to say.

“Foreign policy couldn’t save Mosul; neither could the Iraqi army,” Rouhani added, warning that Iran should not make the same mistake.

“By the end of this fall, Iran’s gas output from the South Pars gas field will reach 500 million cubic meters per day,” Managing Director of Pars Oil and Gas Company Mohammad Meshkinfam told the Tasnim News Agency.

He said Iran currently produces 430 million cubic meters of gas per day from the field, adding that 70 million cubic meters will be added to its daily natural gas output within the next 45 days.

The Iranian official further said that the field’s total output is expected to hit 530 million cubic meters per day by the end of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20, 2017).

Iran sits on the world’s second largest conventional gas reserves after Russia. The bulk of the country’s gas reserves lie in South Pars gas field in Persian Gulf waters.

South Pars covers an area of 9,700 square kilometers, 3,700 square kilometers of which are in Iran’s territorial waters in the Persian Gulf. The remaining 6,000 square kilometers are situated in Qatar’s territorial waters.

The gas field is estimated to contain a significant amount of natural gas, accounting for about eight percent of the world’s reserves, and approximately 18 billion barrels of condensate.
