The Iraqi government will provide weapons and equipment to citizens who volunteer to fight against jihadist fighters, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said on Tuesday.
Maliki, in a statement broadcast on state TV, said the cabinet has “created a special crisis cell to follow up on the process of volunteering and equipping and arming.”
The statement came as rebels from the al-Qaeda inspired Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) captured the northern province of Nineveh, which includes the country’s largest city Mosul.
