VOICED : Tropas iraquies aseguran control en alrededores de Mosul

Iraqi troops have regained control of several towns from ISIS in northern Iraq, including Karamles and Hamdanilla. As they advance towards Mosul, they assess the damage in Christian towns in the Niniveh province, which were devastated by jihadists in 2014. Witnesses express sadness over the destruction seen in streets and schools. According to the US Central Command, between 800 and 900 ISIS fighters have been killed in the operation to liberate Mosul, but thousands remain entrenched. Federal forces and Kurdish Peshmerga, supported by the International Coalition led by Washington, are leading the advance.
