“Islamic State prohibits red clothes in western Mosul on Valentine’s Day,” by Mohamed Mostafa, Iraqi News, February 13, 2017:
Nineveh (IraqiNews.com) Islamic State extremists have barred wearing red-colored clothes in western Mosul, preparing to prevent Valentine’s Day celebrations, according to local sources.
The group’s media surprisingly distributed warnings saying red colors were not allowed, even for children, a local source in Nineveh told Alsumaria News.
The source presumed the move aimed to prevent Iraqis from marking the occasion, adding that the group fears that the least sign of celebration would stand as a challenge to its rules.
