http://dailycaller.com/2017/07/06/isis-fighters-hiding-behind-wives-children-in-last-stand/Islamic State fighters are deploying their wives and children against the Iraqi Security Forces in their last bastions within the city of Mosul, Iraqi commanders tell the Associated Press.
The deluge of suicide bombers is reportedly slowing down the ISF in their last push against the terrorist group in Mosul.

The strategy has made advancement in Mosul a grueling street-by-street slog and has dragged on operations for nearly eight months.
