ATP - The
mobile phone was found with one of the killed ISIL leaders in the Northern
parts of Salahuddin province two days ago," Jabbar al-Ma'mouri told
Soumeriya news on Monday.
He
said that the mobile set and history files contain messages from the Turkish
intelligence agency which show that Ankara supports the ISIL terrorist group
through providing security at the points of entry used by ISIL militants from
Turkey to Iraq.
"The
mobile phone also contains other important information which cannot be
disclosed now, and it has been delivered to the specialized security groups for
further scrutiny," Ma'mouri said.
In
relevant remarks on November, Russian Ambassador to France Alexander Orlov said
that Turkey has played an "ambiguous" role in the campaign against
the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) while acting as an accomplice
to the terrorist group’s activities.
Also
last month, former US Department of State senior advisor David Phillips said
Turkey has blatantly provided material support to the ISIL because they share
an ideological connection along with a common foe in Syrian President Bashar
Assad.
"Turkey’s
role has not been ambiguous — it has overtly supported the ISIL,"
Phillips, currently Director of Columbia University’s Peace-building and Rights
Program, said. "It has provided logistical support, money, weapons,
transport and healthcare to wounded warriors."
Phillips
explained that Turkey has been supporting the ISIL to remove Syrian President
Bashar Assad from power and because of a "spiritual bond" that exists
between Turkey’s governing party and the jihadists.
