ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - An Islamic State militant fell into the hands of Peshmerga forces during fierce fighting against the extremist group in the northern Iraqi town of Tel Skuf, Tuesday afternoon.Video footage published on Twitter accounts shows a wounded ISIS militant with his hands tied, sitting in the back of a pick-up truck on the Tel Skuf front.Four hundred ISIS fighters lashed out against Peshmerga forces on multiple war fronts early Tuesday, wounding at least two Kurdish soldiers in car bombings and suffering casualties themselves.The fiercest fighting was reported in Tel Skuf, where two ISIS suicide attackers detonated their explosives in the early morning but failed to inflict Peshmerga casualties, despite the large number of militants reportedly involved in the battle.ISIS briefly took control of some of the Peshmerga frontlines, but the militants were later pushed back with air support by the US-led coalition, military sources said.
