Mosul is a city of over 1.8 million ppl and its now controlled by Al Qaeda:
ISIS commander Omar Al-Shishani, a Russian Jihadist who led the assault, steps out of an American humvee captured in the assault
ISIS cutting off the hands of civilians
A man crucified by ISIS for being Christian.
From second article:
"a decision has been taken to start directing the IAF’s fire power against military and terrorist targets in the Syrian and Iraqi arenas – in particular the al Qaeda forces foregathering ever closer to Israel’s borders with Syria, Iraq and Jordan. By aerial fire power, the general meant not just warplanes but also Israel’s long-range unmanned aerial vehicles and helicopters."
