U.S. begins today flights over Tikrit
The Iraqi government asked the U.S.
military to conduct aerial surveillance over Tikrit.
Until this
development, the Iraqi military and militias
had rejected any U.S. involvement in the Tikrit operation, preferring Iranian
help.
However, since the operation stalled about ten days ago, some officials
have admitted that Coalition strikes are needed to rid the city of Islamic
State militants.
That request
could come any day, according to an anonymous diplomat from one of the
Coalition countries.
