Mosul, Iraq's second-most populous city, fell to an ISIL blitzkrieg in June 2014. The group's fighters poured over the border from Syria, seizing large swaths of northern Iraq. Two years later, the Iraqi army - backed by local militias, Kurdish forces and air strikes carried out by an international coalition - began an operation to drive ISIL out of the city.
