civilians to the city center, where
the militant group has been
using people as human shields
as Iraqi forces advance on

a wounded Iraqi special forces
soldier gets treatment at a field
clinic in Gogjali, on the eastern
outskirts of Mosul, Iraq. As Iraqi
forces struggle to secure recent
gains against the Islamic State
group in Mosul, casualties are
spiking. Iraqi officers say they
expect the toll among both civilians
and troops to rise as the troops
continue to push into the IS-held
city center. At the field hospital,
teams of Iraqi and Western
volunteer medics are treating a
family badly burned by a car bomb,
children maimed by booby-trapped

The body of 19-year-old Berzan Ibrahim Khelil, who was killed by a mortar during fighting
between the Iraqi forces and Islamic State militants is carried to a cemetery on a cart by his
cousin in Mosul, Iraq, Thursday, Nov. 17. As the operation to retake Mosul enters its second
month Iraqi forces are preparing for prolonged, grueling urban combat as they slow the
tempo of their operation, advancing just a few hundred meters at a time. The individual
tactics employed by IS mirror past fights with the group, but the sheer scale of IS defenses
and counterattacks in Mosul has overwhelmed Iraq's military.
