Mosul: US commander says Iraq must stop Islamic State 2.0 bbc.com
The senior US commander in Iraq has warned that the war against the so-called Islamic State (IS) is not over, despite a "historic" victory in Mosul.
Lt Gen Stephen Townsend told the BBC there were still IS fighters in Iraq.
He said the government should now reach out to Iraq's Sunnis to stop the jihadist group from renewing itself.
"If we're to keep… ISIS 2.0 from emerging, the Iraqi government is going to have to do something pretty significantly different," he said.
