Iraqi security forces launch a rocket against Islamic State militants positions during clashes in the western side of Mosul, Iraq, Sunday, March 5, 2017. An Iraqi commander said Sunday that troops are moving toward the local government complex in Mosul's Islamic State-held western side amid the "heaviest" clashes since the start of the new push more than two weeks ago. The officer with the Federal Police Commandos Division told The Associated Press that IS militants dispatched at least six suicide car bombs, which all were destroyed before reaching the troops. He added that the militants are moving from house to house and deploying snipers. (AP Photo/Khalid Mohammed)
