47. ISIS Terrorists Used Blistering Agent Against Civilians in Kirkuk, Iraq, 2016: 1 Casualty, 600 Wounded
Kirkuk is an Iraqi city that has long had a troubled history, especially in modern times, due to sectarian violence and, more recently, the rapid tyranny of ISIS. In 2016, international forces, which included many Kurdish troops, pushed ISIS into retreat and caused it to lose much of its territory.
ISIS retaliated by deploying a blistering agent. The blistering agent that ISIS terrorists used in this attack on civilians in Kirkuk is unknown. Tragically, the only death was that of a three-year-old child.
