Mosul, Iraq - May 23, 2017: An Iraqi security guard walks in the ruins of Al-Salam hospital, one of the many institutions in Mosul that will take years to rebuild. The hospital was the scene of heavy fighting in late 2016, when the Iraqi government, with U.S. support, wrested control of this part of Mosul from ISIS.

Located approximately 400 km (250 mi) north of Baghdad, and 170 km southeast of the city of Cizre in Turkey, Mosul stands on the west bank of the Tigris, opposite the ancient Assyrian city of Nineveh on the east bank.
