==Bashiqa still contested acc to many sources==

Bashiqa is presented under Peshmerga control in map. Although [http://rudaw.net/english/kurdistan/07112016 Rudaw] and [http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2016/11/07/Peshmerga-forces-claim-full-control-over-Bashiqa-.html Al-Arabiya] state they have captured it. However, [http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-37894809 BBC], [http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/11/battle-mosul-peshmerga-push-isil-held-bashiqa-161107151213902.html Al-Jazeera] and [http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-11-08/kurdish-fighters-storm-islamic-state-town-near-mosul/8003866 ABC Online] say they only stormed it and control parts of it. The reports of complete capture might have been premature, Al Jazeera does state Peshmerga controls most of Bashiqa. These sources are more recent than Rudaw and Al-Arabiya. Only BBC is of earlier time than Al-Arabiya whose report seems to based on Peshmerga claim which it details in its article. Many other sources too only say Peshmerga has entered Bashiqa and controls parts of Bashiqa. I think it is better to show it as contested for the time being until all reliable news sources state they have captured it.

Nevermind, seems to have been captured by Peshmerga now [http://www.dailysabah.com/war-on-terror/2016/11/10/daesh-tunnels-discovered-in-liberated-bashiqa]. [[Special:Contributions/117.207.150.229|117.207.150.229]] ([[User talk:117.207.150.229|talk]]) 19:59, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

There seemed to be some reports a few days ago Nimrud was under ISIL control. But Nimrud too has now been captured by Iraqi forces [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/11/13/iraqi-forces-retake-ancient-city-of-nimrud/ Iraqi forces retake historical town of Nimrud]. This problem is solved as well. [[Special:Contributions/59.89.47.63|59.89.47.63]] ([[User talk:59.89.47.63|talk]]) 18:37, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
