28.11.2015 - A Peshmerga soldier walks by a destroyed building along Highway 47, stretching both east and west of Sinjar city, Nineveh province, northern Iraq. Sinjar and approximately 30km of Highway 47, running both east and west of the city were liberated from ISIS control on November 13, following coalition airstrikes and a ground-force offensive of Kurdish forces made up of Yazidi, Peshmerga and PKK soldiers. The recapture of Highway 47 effectively cut off one of the main ISIS supply routes between the ISIS-held cities of Rakka and Mosul.
