The Supreme Command for Jihad and Liberation, a group associated with former Iraqi Vice President Ezzat al Douri, released its fourth compilation video on the Internet. The 30-minute video was divided into four sections which included UAV, mortar, rocket and IED attacks. It included new footage of a UAV that was shot down by the group, the firing of 82 and 120 mm mortars, grad missiles being fired at various targets and the making and detonation of IEDs.

The Supreme Command for Jihad and Liberation is an Iraqi insurgent front comprised of around 23 militia groups formed in October 2007 and led by al Douri.
