An Iraqi man stopped a would-be suicide bomber from the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham from reaching his intended target on Thursday night.
His heroic action saved dozens of lives at the Sayyed Mohammad Shrine in the town of Balad.

According to Al-Masdar News, Without Al-Baldawi’s heroic act on Thursdsay night, the death toll from the Islamic State terrorist attack at the Sayyed Mohammad Shrine wouldd have risen.
