Mosul civilians run for their lives

The fighting in Mosul is dragging on, with nearly 200,000 people trapped as Iraqi forces move towards the Old City.

Capturing the town of Al-Baaj brings them closer to their goal of controlling areas near the Iraqi-Syrian border so they can cut off ISIL supply routes.
