The Iraqi High Commission for Human Rights announced that 2,265 bodies have been exhumed, so far, in Nineveh province, which was held by the Islamic State militants from 2014-2017.

Mosul is the largest city in the province.

At least four people were killed, and another was wounded in recent violence:

In Hakana, a bomb killed three employees of the water department.

An explosion in Naft Khana left one militiaman dead and another wounded.
