On the other, (5)ISIS terrorists who took over the city of Mosul in 2014. This is ISIS’s last stronghold in Iraq, and a defeat there would be a major setback for the terrorists, though they still have territory in other parts of Iraq and in Syria.
Iraqi-led troops are fighting ISIS on the streets, in neighborhoods. (6)They’re facing hidden explosives and car bombs. Thousands of civilians from Mosul and its surrounding towns are caught in a crossfire. (7)Some of them are forced to stay through the ISIS occupation. Some of them are used by ISIS as human shields.
