Mosul

Daesh controlled Mosul for three years.

By mid-February all students in eastern Mosul are expected to be attending school, and placement exams will determine their grade levels, according to Saab Ali, the school manager of the Al-Kufa boys' school.

On July 10 multiple media outlets reported that several Daesh (ISIL) militants set five oil wells south of Mosul on fire in an attempt to slow the advance of the government army.
