Accused Islamic State members, including French nationals, are on trial in Iraq for atrocities committed against people living under the group's rule in Syria and Iraq, Al-Monitor reported. The group, which broadcast its crimes and recruited foreign fighters, was militarily defeated years ago. The report did not give details of the charges, verdicts or trial dates. The proceedings come years after the group lost its territory, with accused members again in the spotlight. The case is unrelated to Iran's direct confrontations and is included here only because it was gathered in this scan.
