Liberation of Mosul foils US plots: Armed Forces spokesman

He pointed to liberation of Mosul and noted that regional people will counter any type of enemy aggression.

Recruited forces of the US and reactionary regimes of the region will be expelled from Syria and Yemen, similar to what happened in Iraq, Jazayeri noted.

He said that defeat of Daesh is the US defeat and it is a victory for the resistance.

Jazayeri congratulated victory of the Iraqi Army and the country's Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Forces) over Daesh and noted that this success is beginning for bigger successes and moving towards preserving the country’s sovereignty.

Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi visited Mosul on Sunday and declared complete Iraqi forces’ victory over Daesh (ISIS).

According to the reports, all the streets of Mosul have been cleaned of Daesh elements.

On June 29, Iraqi forces captured the wrecked historic mosque of Mosul in which Daesh terrorist group proclaimed its self-styled 'caliphate' three years ago.

Taking the Grand al-Nuri Mosque gives a symbolic victory to the Iraqi forces who have been battling for more than eight months to recapture Mosul, the northern city that served as Daesh's de-facto capital in Iraq.
