This war that happened a0 years ago and what happened to these people was not properly understood, and not just for the world, but for the people of the country. Iraqi Security Forces have been pushing forward in a major offensive aimed at taking full control of their second largest city, mosul, from so called islamic state. The city was seized more than two years ago as is moved into northern and western iraq. The offensive to remove the group began last october, with iraqi troops securing the eastern part of mosul last month. But the western half of the city is home to around three quarters of a million civilians and stiff resistance from is fighters is expected. 0ur middle east correspondent Quentin Sommerville and cameraman nick millard are the only Television Journalists on the frontline with iraqi forces. They sent this report. Just after sunrise, iraq bagai and what it hopes is its last major battle against the so called islamic state. Began. Thousands of men and hundreds of armoured vehicles in a line of attack that spread for miles. The iraqi army beginning their assault on western mosul, they have breached their defences, armoured vehicles are lining up ready for the islamic state. Theyre only a couple of kilometres further that weight and they know that these men are coming, theyre dug in with the assault mosul having started. Leading the attack, iraqs Emergency Response division, police specialforces. Some of these men were surrounded by is two years ago, theyjust escaped with their lives. Today they threw everything they had at is. Were now above the village which is the main target, al lazzagah, and theyre about to call in some artillery strikes. But first came the mortars. The captain tells me there are three is fighters in a yellow building down there and car bombs, were targeting them now. Car bomb explosion just gone off, the men were trying to take it out, seems like they managed to hit it. They set up a whole load of rivals but as you can see here theyre getting ready with another rpg just in case. It seems like they got it. There were four car bombs in total but soon Government Forces were inside. They killed 13 is fighters and sustained only one casualty. Translation we are very glad to have liberated this area. We have killed lots of is and we will soon get civilians back to their homes. We will continue to push forward and well follow is to the border. Here there were no white flags or is black flags. For the first time in yea rs black flags. For the first time in years iraqs flag flew above the village. The village is small but important. Its the Gateway To Mosul proper and the citys airport. And, as we discovered, holmes had become fortresses. Homes. Here is weapons. And hidden inside a house away from surveillance aircraft, another car bomb disguised as an ambulance. The bomb inside was still live. In these streets, though, a critical advantage. There were no civilians. In west mosul there are 750,000 people and thousands of is fighters. It took these men just six hours to take this village, their target. They made Good Progress but with overwhelming force. Beyond here is another town and another village. That town overlooks Mosul Airport and the city itself. From here on m, and the city itself. From here on in, though, the going wont be nearly so fast. This was a victory two years nearly so fast. This was a victory two yea rs in nearly so fast. This was a victory two years in the making. But its more than that. These troops once humiliated by is today celebrated a moment of redemption for them and for iraq. Quentin somerville, bbc news, on mosuls southern front. Earlier i spoke to tom robinson, Emergency Team leader at 0xfam, and started by asking him how many people were in need of help. We are looking at an approximate population within mosul on the western side of 750,000 civilians and planning figures at the moment are approximately 250,000 that we are expecting to be displaced from mosul itself. Having seen people flee from eastern mosul, what sort of indication does that give you of the kind of help they will need and the condition they will be in . The civilians are fleeing very horrific conditions. They are having to Cross Frontlines from within mosul to is controlled territory and quite often they are coming out with nothing more than the clothes on their back, very much caught up with the crossfire from is and the iraqi Security Forces as well. Its a very dangerous situation for civilians to be fleeing and arriving in a state of real desperation, so a lot of work for the humanitarians on this front. Yes, what sort of preparations are you making . At 0xfam what we are focusing on is the positioning of the emergency stock, making sure we have a supply of goods and services in place for when they flee from mosul itself. And the humanitarian community on the whole, as well as with the iraqi government, are preparing camps for displacement, purpose built to house the civilians fleeing mosul. Were also trying to support some of the key infrastructure within strategic locations in order to make sure that services can be provided to displaced people. What sort of medical aid will you need to offer them as well . We are not really dealing with medical aid, but one of the biggest concerns is the initial trauma of the civilian population. Theyre fleeing a battlefield, quite often there is a grave threat with isis in relation to improvised explosive devices. They are using a nasty and intricate means of causing civilian casualties, so all kinds of trauma and that is followed by secondary support in hospitals as well. The American FoodCompany Kraft heinz has amicably agreed to withdraw its proposal for a takeover of unilever. The anglo dutch giant owns many familiar brands, including Household Names such as marmite and persil. Earlier i spoke with our business correspondent, joe lynam. He started by telling us about the reactions to kraft heinzs bid on friday. That took a lot of people by surprise not least of all unilever. Who promptly rebuffed the offer, by saying basically, it completely undervalues the company and the cultures were very different. I understand the bosses of both companies, both quite famous executives, spoke over the weekend, and that it was patentee clear that if kraft heinz were to pursue this, they would have to go hostile, there had to go over the heads of the management to the shareholders and it could end up being very expensive for kraft heniz so, within 52 hours of submitting the bid, they have withdrawn the bid. And its been done amicably, as i failed to say before. I would say in a friendly way, but also this is slightly face saving on the part of kraft heinz. Kraft heinz are a giant american company. Basically the two cultures couldnt fit, kraft heinz are controlled by a Private Equity Group from brazil called 3g and Warren Buffett and they are there to make money and they have a history of cost cutting, jobs and factories. Unilever on the other hand have a very different culture, they are very corporately socially responsible company, they value the environment, the Chief Executive has a particular bee in the bonnet about the amazon. But those two together and they may not have been a fit. Basically neither the companies would have fitted culturally, it would have been too expensive for kraft to proceed. But it is a surprise. Unilever, how much is it worth if that was undervalueing it . They were worth £100 billion on friday morning and by friday afternoon they were worth 115 billion. Because the Company Shares rose by 15 . Those shares tomorrow i suspect, there will be a lot of selling simpler because the company will go back to where it was on friday morning. Still the Third LargestCompany Listed on the stock exchange, a giant of a company. Most households have some of their products. The body of a two year old boy has been found in the river ericht in perthshire after he disappeared from his home near bridge of cally.

At least 3a people have been killed in an explosion in a market in the somali capital mogadishu. The car bomb ripped through shops and stalls in the madina district. It comes days before the country is due to inaugurate the new president Mohamed Abdullahi mohamed. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack. The Prison Officers Association has dismissed Government Plans to increase the pay of some of its members as a sticking plaster that will not fix the broken system. Thousands of officers atjails in london and the South East Of England will be offered a rise of between £3,000 and £5,000. Ministers say it will boost recruitment and retention, but the union says all its members face the same risks and the policy will be divisive. Heres our home affairs correspondent, june kelly. This is how many officers it takes to contain one violent prisoner. Every working day, staff are battling simply to keep control. The £12 million in extra pay announced today is aimed at bringing in new recruits and paying some existing staff more. Here in Wandsworth Jail in south london, officers will benefit. The offer is limited to prisons in the capital and the south east, a divisive move, according to the prison 0fficers association. Were going to welcome additional money for our members, of course we are, but we dont think this goes far enough to solving the prison crisis. We believe it needs to be a national issue. The offer is for standard grade three Prison Officers, not for more Senior Supervisors or specialists. Each will receive a pay hike of at least £3,000. For new recruits, their pay package will be increased by £5,000, the sweetener to bring people in. The Panorama Programme recently went undercover at northumberland jail, and it showed inmates high on drugs. Staff constantly having to search for banned substances. Theres no more money for officers here in todays announcement. 0ne needed medical treatment for a seizure because hed inhaled the synthetic drug spice. Thejustice secretary liz truss has already announced plans to significantly boost officer numbers. Its not something you can sort out in weeks or months. It takes time to recruit people, to bring those people on. But im absolutely determined to deal with that. But Prison Reform campaigners, including those who have been inside, say there has to be more focused on retaining experienced hands. There is a peculiar invisible chemistry of where a Mutual Respect between experienced Prison Officers who know how to keep difficult prisoners under control from inexperienced officers who dont quite understand that you dont need to take out your truncheon necessarily to sort out a fight between two prisoners. Eventually, the plan is for 2,500 extra officers in england and wales. But they wont all be in place until 2018. June kelly, bbc news.
