Official: report on Mosul's fall to be published next month
9/6/2015
Sulaimani, Kurdistan Region – An official on the security committee of the Iraqi parliament has announced that the results of the committee's investigation into the ISIS takeover of Mosul a year ago today will be released when parliament reconvenes from a break next month.
“The inquiry committee on the case of Mosul's collapse has done its duty very well. And, as far as I have been notified, the only remaining thing is their final report and after the parliament's break, the result of the inquiry will be published,” said Hoshyar Abdulla, a Kurdish member of Iraqi parliament and a member of the security committee.
Abdulla said the committee has held more than 100 interviews in the case. Mosul fell on June 10 after a lightning strike across much of western Iraq by the Islamic State, or ISIS. The defeat was a humiliation for the Iraqi Army, with many troops known to have abandoned their weapons and uniforms as they fled the ISIS onslaught.
Abdulla told Rudaw he hopes the results of the investigation will be used to address security concerns rather than as accusations that may lead to further discord among Iraqi officials.
