Local residents and press sources said dozens of civilians were killed or injured in Al Farouk neighbourhood in the west of Mosul. This reportedly included 19 members from the same family, including women and children. They died when their house was bombed. Sources reported that many of the victims were still under the rubble after shelling by different weapons had increasingly targeted the area.
A source told Yaqein that “the bombing caused the deaths of dozens of dead and wounded, amid the utter absence of any ambulance operations in light of the continuing bombings of the government.” Other sources also mentioned the Coalition. Witnesses told Al Jazeera Iraq that the bombing was “barbaric and indiscriminate.”
Sawif Ateka has named a 6-year old girl, Aya, as one of the victims.
