‘Taking full control of Mosul only days away’



Iraqi forces have made fresh gains against Daesh Takfiri terrorists in Mosul that brings them closer to taking full control of the city.

The army captured two neighborhoods of Hadarat al-Sa’ada and Ahmadiya in the Old City area. They are located northwest of the historic Grand Nuri Mosque that Daesh Takfiris destroyed last week. Terrorists still control the mosque’s grounds and about half of the last territory they run in the Old City.

Iraqi forces say they are only a few days away from dislodging Daesh Takfiri terrorists. It is estimated that up to 350 terrorists remain in the city. They are trying to slow the advance of Iraqi forces by laying booby traps and using bombers and snipers. The army launched an offensive to retake Mosul last October.
