For the safety of up to 150 thousand civilians who could be trapped in the last enclave of mosul. Its held by the so called islamic sate. But the iraqi army is closing in. As it does the Un Humanitarian Co ordinator in the country says civilains are at extreme almost unimaginable risk. More on that in a moment. But first, our correspondent 0rla guerin reports from the front line in mosuls old city. Shes with Cameraman Nicholas Hameon and producer firle davies. A warning her report contains distressing images. A journey to the front line. 0ur windscreen, a reminder of the dangers ahead. 0ur escort, from iraqs elite Counter Terrorism force. Snaking forward towards an enemy that is still inflicting casualties. Like this wounded soldier, being rushed away as we arrived. And families fleeing too. 0n foot. Escaping hunger and fear, and a beloved city robbed of life. No food. No water. Mosul dead. This is the old city area, it is really the heart of the battle, and when you look around here you get a real sense of how fierce the fighting has been, the damage is immense in every direction. The narrow streets are a tight squeeze as troops close in on the last pockets of is resistance. We were told the militants were just 300 metres away. Some on the Receiving End of an iraqi missile strike. The extremists are now facing defeat here, but it has taken three years to get this far. And immense damage has been done to the fabric of mosul, and the unity of iraq. Well, we heard from civilains who had managed to escape in 0rlas report. But what about those still trapped . Ive been speaking to lisa grande the Un Humanitarian Co ordinator in iraq. She says civilians including children are being used as Human Shields By is. I think it is very clear that the 100,000 250,000 civilians who are still trapped in the old city of mosul are and extreme risk. That includes being used as human shields. Families trying to escape from the old city are being directly targeted. We estimate that at least 30 of all the people who are fleeing and are being shot are women and children. Wheels or that the families who are trapped inside of mosul are suffering from food deprivation. It is very hot in there 110w deprivation. It is very hot in there now and we know that Water Supplies have been cut for a long time. That means families do not have the Safe Drinking Water they need. Do you think the immediate challenge is can your teens cope on the ground . We estimated that oneill worst case scenario, 150,000 people would flee. Before the old city has been reta ken, before the old city has been retaken, 900,000 civilians have left mosul. In other words, we have surpassed the worst case. Even having said that, we have been able to stay under the leadership of the government and stay one step ahead. We are now entering the final stages and it is clear that we do not have the funding that is required to support the huge numbers of people who have left and the hundred thousand to 150,000 who have left and the hundred thousand to 150 , 000 civilians who have left and the hundred thousand to 150,000 civilians who at have not yet been able to leave the old city. We need to provide the funding that is so urgently needed. That is the humanitarian need, but what about in terms of the military need . Do you think the intensification of this fighting, do you think a ceasefire is an order . This is some of the most intense fighting we have seen in the entire campaign to host Islamic State from iraq. This is why the United Nations, we have said it before, as strongly as we can, all of the parties involved have to do everything we can to ensure that civilians survive, they are protected and they receive the assistance they need. The parties to the conflict are making sure that civilians live. Rescue work has continued throughout the night after a massive landslide in Chinas Sichuan province.

We cannot do this actively promoting an extremist and terrorist agenda. For more on this, i spoke with the Bbc World Service middle east analyst, sebastian usher. As qatar has said this is basically an attack on their 70, i think many people would say that this is pretty much what it would mind to.
