  • Licensed to London News Pictures. 02/11/2016. Qayyarah, Iraq. With the sky blotted out by burning oil wells, a soldier of the Iraqi Army's Emergency Response Unit holds up the Iraqi flag from the top of an armed Humvee utility vehicle as his convoy enters the town of Qayyarah, Iraq.<br />
<br />
Two months after being liberated from the Islamic State, the Iraqi town of Qayyarah, located around 30km south of Mosul, is still dealing with the environmental repercussions of their ISIS occupation. The town's estimated 15,000 inhabitants constantly live under, and in, heavy clouds of smoke which often envelope the settlement. The clouds emanate from burning oil wells in a nearby oil field that were set alight by retreating ISIS extremists after a two year occupation. The proximity of the fires, often right next to homes within the town, covers many buildings and residents with thick soot and will lead to long term health and environmental implications.

  • Licensed to London News Pictures. 11/11/2016. Mosul, Iraq. A soldier, belonging to the Iraqi Army's 9th Armoured Division, peers from the turret of an armoured Humvee as his unit visits Mosul's Al Inisar district on the south east of the city. The Al Intisar district was taken four days ago by Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) and, despite its proximity to ongoing fighting between ISF and ISIS militants, many residents still live in the settlement without regular power and water and with dwindling food supplies.<br />
<br />
The battle to retake Mosul, which fell June 2014, started on the 16th of October 2016 with Iraqi Security Forces eventually reaching the city on the 1st of November. Since then elements of the Iraq Army and Police have succeeded in pushing into the city and retaking several neighbourhoods allowing civilians living there to be evacuated - though many more remain trapped within Mosul.

  • Licensed to London News Pictures. 23/10/2016. A Humvee utility vehicle, modified with extra armour by its former Islamic State owners, is seen on a street whilst it waits repairs by the Iraqi Army in the recently liberated town of Bartella, Iraq.<br />
<br />
Bartella, a mainly Christian town with a population of around 30,000 people before being taken by the Islamic State in August 2014, was captured two days ago by the Iraqi Army's Counter Terrorism force as part of the ongoing offensive to retake Mosul. Although ISIS militants were pushed back a large amount of improvised explosive devices are still being found in the town's buildings. Photo credit: Matt Cetti-Roberts/LNP
