International Crisis Program

Current International Crisis Project: War in Mosul
Fresh from Mosul
The Islamic State (ISIS) has occupied Mosul, Iraq’s second largest city, since June 2014. Now Iraqi forces, along with several of their allies, are fighting to take back the city. Outlying villages that had been taken over by ISIS have been reclaimed by the Iraqi army. But ISIS is putting up stiff resistance, using suicide bombers, roadside bombs, and human shields to slow the halt of the Iraqi government.
