Iraqi Forces Push Into Western Mosul in Battle with ISIL


Iraqi security forces have advanced deeper into the western half of Mosul, a day after launching attacks on several fronts against the self-styled Islamic State’s last main stronghold in the city.

Troops captured the airport on Thursday, an important prize in the battle to end ISIL’s control of territory.

A military spokesman said security forces took over an army base as they pushed further into southwestern districts.
