Iraqi forces call on civilians inside at least seven sub-districts in Mosul’s Old City to evacuate the areas ahead of a key offensive against Daesh terrorists. The Iraqi troops have told Press TV that they’ve made some adjustments to their original plan to protect civilians as they seek to liberate the last remaining territory under Daesh control in Mosul.
