Breaking News-Sunni insurgents make Iraq gains as army flees Mosul

Updated: 11 Jun 2014

June 11 - Sunni insurgents extend their control over Iraq's second biggest city, Mosul, forcing the the army to effectively flee the city. unni rebels from an al Qaeda splinter group overran the Iraqi city of Tikrit on Wednesday and closed in on the biggest oil refinery in the country, making further gains in their rapid military advance against the Shi'ite-led government. The threat to the Baiji refinery comes after militants from the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) seized the northern city of Mosul, advancing their aim of creating a Sunni Caliphate straddling the border between Iraq and Syria. The fall of Mosul, Iraq's second biggest city, is a blow to Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's attempts to defeat the militants, who have seized territory in Iraq over the past year following the withdrawal of U.S. forces. About 500,000 Iraqis have fled Mosul, home to 2 million people, and the surrounding province, many seeking safety in the autonomous Kurdistan region. Insurgents are now in control of between 10 and 15 pct of Iraqi territory, excluding Kurdistan. Security sources said ISIL militants on Wednesday drove more than 60 vehicles into Tikrit, the home town of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, occupying the provincial government headquarters and raising the black flag of ISIL. "Our forces were caught by surprise, they never expected ISIL would use police and army Humvee vehicles, we mistook them for government forces and it was too late to stop them," said a police captain who fled from Tikrit to Samarra. "We are fighting devils and not ordinary people". Around 100 ISIL fighters held mass prayers in central Tikrit after taking control.

BBC's Paul Adams reports Continue reading the main story Struggle for Iraq Mosul take-over How to recover Mosul? In 60 secs: Iraq election Watch Bloodshed and strife Islamist insurgents have attacked the Iraqi city of Tikrit after overrunning Mosul, security sources say. They say the militants are now in control of some parts of Tikrit - Saddam Hussein's hometown which lies just 150km (95 miles) north of Baghdad. Iraqi PM Nouri Maliki has vowed to fight back against the jihadists and punish those in the security forces who have deserted. The insurgents are from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS). As many as 500,000 people fled Mosul after the militants attacked there. The head of the Turkish mission in Mosul and 48 officials are among many people being held by the militants, Turkish officials say. The insurgents moved quickly south, entering the town of Baiji late on Tuesday before moving on towards Tikrit. Heavy clashes are reported in Tikrit, with dozens of insurgents said to be fighting security forces near the headquarters of the Salaheddin provincial government in the city centre. One eyewitness told the BBC that gunmen had entered the city from four different directions and a police station had been set on fire.

Iraq's parliament speaker says the northern province of Nineveh has fallen to the so-called Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. The al-Qaeda-linked militants have captured the capital Mosul. The heavily-armed insurgents took control of the governor's headquarters, prisons and television stations before capturing the entire city. Witnesses say the shops are closed, security forces have abandoned their vehicles and a police station has been set ablaze. The militants have also kidnapped 28 Turkish truck drivers there. Mosul is the second Iraqi city to fall to militants this year, after the government lost control of Fallujah in early January.

Iraqi city of Mosul falls to jihadists

Updated: 10 Jun 2014

Iraqi police and army forces abandoned their posts in the northern city of Mosul after militants overran the provincial government headquarters and other key buildings, dealing a serious blow to Baghdad's efforts to control a widening insurgency in the country, a provincial official and residents said Tuesday. The insurgents seized the government complex -- a key symbol of state authority -- late on Monday, following days of fighting in the country's second-largest city, a former al Qaeda stronghold situated in what has long been one of the more restive parts of Iraq. The gunmen also torched several of the city's police stations, freeing detainees held in lockups. According to reports on Iraqi and Arab media, more than 2,000 prisoners might have been released by the militants. The fighters are believed to be affiliated with the Islamic State of Iraq and al Sham (ISIS, also known as ISIL), an al Qaeda splinter group that is behind the bulk of the bloody attacks in Iraq and is among the most ruthless rebel forces fighting to topple President Bashar Assad in neighboring Syria. The group has also tried to position itself as a champion for Iraq's large and disaffected Sunni minority. Deadliest month of 2014 in Iraq Several worried Mosul residents reported seeing the gunmen hoisting the black flags inscribed with the Islamic declaration used by ISIS, al Qaeda and other jihadist groups. The insurgents appeared to be in control in several parts of the city, they said over the telephone, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution. Detainees set free form the police stations were seen running in the streets in their yellow-jumpsuits, they said. Um Karam, a government employee who lives about just over a mile from the provincial headquarters, said her family decided to flee the city early on Tuesday after hearing about the government building's fall.
