Mosul - Egypt Today
Iraq won a victory over "brutality and terrorism" in Mosul that marks the collapse of the jihadists' state, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said on Monday.
But with the military mission against the Islamic State group in Iraq's second city completed, the country now faces other challenges, including stabilisation and rebuilding, he said.
"Our victory today is a victory over darkness, a victory over brutality and terrorism, and I announce to the whole world today the end and failure and collapse of the mythical terrorist (IS) state," Abadi announced in west Mosul.
