Iraq's joint military forces managed to seize back most of the Daesh-controlled city of al-Qayyara, south of Mosul, in Nineveh Province.
The Iraqi forces have now imposed full control over 75 percent of the al-Qayyara city and have advanced from three directions deep inside the city.
Fierce clashes are currently underway in the northern parts of the city as the Daesh terrorists are fleeing from the northern parts to the southern parts of the city.
The Daesh terrorists are currently under the siege of the Iraqi forces in the southeastern and western parts of al-Qayyara city.
Earlier on Sunday, Iraq's joint military forces approached the gates of al-Qayyara city which is 63 kilometers from Mosul and were ready to start the third phase of the liberation operations of Mosul city and its surrounding areas.
On Saturday a senior military commander announced that Iraq's joint military forces have completely seized back a strategic island to the east of al-Ramadi in Anbar Province.
