Despite heavy fighting between the Islamic State and Iraqi Security Forces many civilians have started to leave ISIS territory in West Mosul. Mosul residents, many of whom have been in hiding in their homes since the start of the West Mosul Offensive, often have to run through ISIS sniper and machine gun fire to reach the safety of Iraqi Security Forces positions.
