After a 48 hour pause in combat, US-backed Iraqi forces have launched a fresh push to take the IS-held areas in western Mosul.
Bad weather had stalled their advance from the south of the city.
In the early hours of Sunday morning, thousands of displaced people
reached positions held by the Iraqi army, with tales of the horror they
experienced.
“We are starving to death,” said one man who had fled the city. “We
have no food, we didn’t even have any rice. Hunger and bombings forced
us to flee our homes. We are fed up and we are really exhausted.
Children didn’t have anything to eat,” he added.
