Mosul: The Road to Recovery

Показать описание
Three years of occupation by ISIL and a protracted military intervention to retake the area have left the once-thriving Old City of Mosul in northern Iraq devastated by conflict and explosive contamination. The Old City is now deserted, covered in millions of tons of rubble strewn with thousands of explosive devices deliberately left behind by ISIL.

Of the 5.8 million Iraqis displaced between 2014 and 2017, nearly 4 million have returned to their homes, while others wait for their neighborhoods, schools and markets to be cleared of deadly explosive devices. Join us as we follow United Nations explosive disposal experts who venture deep into the Old City, putting themselves at risk so others may return safely.

When UNMAS first began work in western Mosul, they encountered an unprecedented amount of improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Hospitals, bridges, schools and water treatment plants with contaminated with IEDs left behind by ISIL. IEDs, until removed, prevent the rehabilitation of the facilities that provide clean water, electricity and health services to the community.

Over 24 million square meters have since been cleared, allowing stabilization activities to begin, and enabling families to return home and resume their lives.

If my grandpa was still here and he saw Mosul now, it would break his heart, that is where he grew up, he always spoke so fondly of his childhood in Mosul and he would always tell us one day he’d love to take us back. I miss my grandpa dearly.

I am from Mosul, studying in the university and I am 20 years old and at this age I am supposed to be happy because I am at the beginning of my life, but the truth is that I lived in the strongest wars and was shot and imprisoned in terrorist prisons, Two shells also hit my house, All this and I am civil !! I have not attacked anyone, I am a peaceful person I want to leave this country, where I have only seen war since my birth .😞

The aerial shots of devastation are chilling to see. Can't believe humans do this to themselves. Such a meaningless war.

Ortadoğu'nun En Önemli, Güzide Kentlerinden Birinin Bu halde olması gerçekten çok çok üzücü bir durum. Umarım Bir An Önce Toparlar Ve Eskisinden bile güzel bir şehir olur. Bir Türkmen şehiri, Türkmen, Kürt, Arap Birlikte Yaşıyor iken Amerika girerek içinden geçti.
