UN Warns Mosul Civilians In Grave Danger
The United Nations says that as the Iraqi army's battle with Islamic state militants in Mosul intensifies trapped civilians will face the most extreme dangers they've encountered since the fight for the city began.
The UN says they are not only enduring severe shortages of food, water, medicine and electricity but the militants are also shooting those who try to escape.
Iraqi forces said they made gains in a new assault on IS there on Saturday.
