The Iraqi prime minister has just declared victory iin Mosul to declare over so-called Islamic State.
After a nine month offensive, he said the last Isis fighters have now been driven out of the city, which is where they first declared their ‘caliphate’.
previously during the day fighters were seen cheering, waving their weapons and taking selfies to celebrate the ‘liberation’ of the city from hardline Islamists, who had forced people living there to witness public executions and changed the school curriculum to focus on weapons and strict interpretations of religious teaching.
Around 30 Isis fighters were killed trying to escape by swimming across the Tigris river, despite previously vowing to fight to the death.

Dat's a good one.
