Kurdish forces recently released a video which shows an apparent unforeseen explosion launching a vehicle-borne bomber into the air like some kind of jihadi firework. Just as whatever’s left of him hits the peak and begins to descend, the payload he intended to deliver (presumably) also exploded.
Mark Piggot of the International Business Times surmised that the car’s explosion was likely “due to an IED which detonated beneath the vehicle as it approached its intended target.”
Kurdish Peshmerga forces have produced a number of videos documenting failed attacks by Islamic State militants as part of a concerted anti-extremism media campaign.
