The Iraqi Armed Forces declared its control over Mosque of Al Nuri in Mosul where Daesh militant group proclaimed its self-styled "caliphate" three years ago, Al Arabiya news channel reported on Thursday.
Last week, Daesh destroyed Mosque of Al Nuri and its historic Al Hadba minaret when the Iraqi forces were only 50 meters away from the mosque.
The destruction of two of Mosul’s best-known landmarks adds to a long list of Iraqi heritage sites and monuments Daesh group has destroyed in Iraq and Syria since the "caliphate" was announced.
