The Iraqi Prime Minister says Daesh has QUOTE sent an official declaration of its defeat in Mosul by bombing the city’s landmark Al-Noori Mosque.
This, as Iraq's defense ministry accused the Takfiri group of committing yet another historic crime by blowing up the mosque and its famous leaning Minaret in Mosul's Old City. The explosion occurred as Iraqi Special Forces advanced to within 50 meters of the 840-year old Mosque. Heavy clashes are ongoing between Iraq’s elite Counter Terrorism Service and Daesh near the site of the blast. The Takfiri group says U-S warplanes bombed the Mosque. But the U-S led coalition denies this. In the summer of 20-14, Daesh used the historic landmark to proclaim its so-called caliphate in Iraq and Syria. Government troops have cornered the terrorists in the Old City, having recaptured all the districts they once held in Mosul.
