Assailants attacked Peshmerga forces in a bid to gain control of Sinjar, Nineveh, Iraq. It is unknown if the assault resulted in any casualties, although the assailants succeeded in capturing the town. This was one of three related incidents in Sinjar on this date and one of four attacks in early August 2014 comprising the Sinjar massacre. The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) claimed responsibility for the incident.
