First today, we’re taking you to the Middle East. The northern part of Iraq is where you’ll find the city of Mosul. On one side of the ongoing 1 battle for it, ISIS terrorists who took over Mosul when the Iraqi army fled in 2014. On the other side, Iraqi troops who were fighting to get it back,along with the help of U.S. and other international forces.


头条新闻,是关于中东。摩苏尔是伊拉克北部的城市。2014年,伊斯兰国武装分子占据了摩苏尔,伊拉克军队逃离。而另一方面。现在,伊拉克军队正在吗美国以及其他国家的帮助下,奋力收回摩苏尔。


Mosul fell to ISIS in just four days. The battle to force ISIS out has been going on since October. The terrorists have dug tunnels. They’ve set traps. They’ve rigged cars with explosives. The Iraqi-led troops have heavy weapons, tens of thousands more fighters and the support of U.S. air power.

The civilians 2 trapped in between had been fleeing from the city in record numbers since the fighting began. The United Nations says 4,000 people a day have been displaced by the battle since February 19th. It’s not known how much of Mosul will be habitable when the fight for it ends.
