‘We Stepped Over Dead Bodies On The Streets To Escape’: BBC Yalda Hakin in Mosul
BBC World News foreign correspondent Yalda Hakin on reporting in Mosul
“First they shot my father dead, then as we tried to get away, the sniper shot my mother. I hate [ISIS], they are evil criminals,” 12 year old Mohamad tells me.
Covered in dust, his loose fitting trousers are rolled up and his flip-flops torn, all reminders of the horrors he has endured in the past few days as he fled his home in west Mosul. Mohammad recalls in graphic detail how he and his two younger brothers managed to get away, leaving the corpses of their parents behind and treading on other dead bodies.
The city of his birth is now destroyed. Reduced to rubble. For almost three years Mohamed had lived under the brutal rule of the Islamic-State and its so called Caliphate. His parents stopped sending him to school, like so many others because of the change in curriculum once ISIS came to town. The only thing the children were being taught at school was to kill, that all other religions and sects deserved to die and that it was for the greater-good of the caliphate and for the sake of Islam.
I met Mohamed when we visited the Hamam Al-Alil camp just South of Mosul, while reporting for BBC World News. He is now eager to learn again. Every day he comes to the camp’s makeshift UNICEF school.

‘The bloke shouldn’t be PM’: TREASURER Scott Morrison
TREASURER Scott Morrison had a fiery exchange with radio host Ray Hadley, who attacked him over the Coalition’s poor Newspoll — and it had a dramatic ending.
On 2GB radio today, Hadley said that if Malcolm Turnbull cannot lead Bill Shorten by 20 points, he shouldn’t be Prime Minister.
“If Bill Shorten can’t be led by 20 percentage points, the bloke who can’t lead him by 20 percentage points based on his performance shouldn’t be Prime Minister that’s what I’m saying to you!” Hadley said.
Hadley called out Mr Morrison, saying he could not avoid commenting on the Newspoll results.
“You bag the crap out of Bill Shorten every time you get on the program you give it to him and I don’t argue with you because I don’t think he’d make a great Prime Minister,” Hadley said.
“But he’s actually taken ground off the Prime Minister and you can’t get out of this — you basically described him as un-electable, he’s stupid, he’s dumb, yet he takes ground off your prime minister.”
