450,000 displaced in Mosul campsThere may not be enough space in camps to accommodate the tens of thousands of internally displaced people (IDP) currently fleeing their homes in western Mosul amid intense fighting in the city, a United Nations official has said.

At least 50,000 people have made their way to the camps on the eastern side of the Tigris River, but the UN warns that if the number rapidly increases, they will be hard pressed to find a place for the new arrivals.

As the US-led Iraqi army offensive to retake the western half of the city from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL/ISIS) continues to push on, at least 700,000 civilians are still trapped inside, with food and fuel supplies fast dwindling.
