On Wednesday, as poor weather bogged down forces advancing on the Islamic State-held city of Mosul, an aid agency warned that civilians there are in great danger as the battle for the city intensifies.

"We are now bracing ourselves for the worst," said the Norwegian Refugee Council's Wolfgang Gressmann. "The lives of 1.2 million civilians are in grave danger, and the future of all of Iraq is now in the balance."

The group said thousands of civilians have already fled the city, and many have already been killed by snipers and explosives. Those still in the city are in need of food, water and medical supplies, and those shortages will intensify as the fighting makes it more difficult for supplies and other humanitarian aid to get through.

Iraqi special forces reached the outskirts of the city Tuesday, two weeks after the offensive to retake Iraq's second largest city began, and more than two years after Mosul was captured by the Islamic State group.

An Iraqi general said troops captured a television station Tuesday before a sandstorm blew in and ended combat operations for the day.

On Wednesday, troops were holding their positions on the city's eastern border as high humidity and clouds limited visibility for drones and other aircraft.

Iraqi Brig. General Haider Fadhil says no advances are planned for Wednesday due to the weather, the Associated Press reported.

星期三,恶劣的天气使向伊斯兰国组织控制的摩苏尔城推进的部队放慢了速度。与此同时,一个救援机构警告说,随着攻城战斗的加剧,那里平民的处境将十分危急。

挪威难民事务委员会的沃尔夫冈·格雷斯曼说:“我们正在准备应对最糟糕的情况。”他说:“那里有120万平民处境十分危急,这涉及到整个伊拉克的未来。”

挪威难民事务委员会说,成千上万平民逃离了这座城市,还有许多人被狙击手射杀或被炸死。仍在摩苏尔城里的平民急需食品、水和医疗用品,上述必需品的短缺情况将日益严重,因为战斗会使生活必需品等人道救援物资的运送更加困难。

伊拉克特种部队星期二已经抵近摩苏尔城市郊,收复伊拉克第二大城市的战斗在两个星期前打响。这座城市被伊斯兰国组织占领已经两年多。

一名伊拉克将军说,伊拉克军队星期二占领了一座电视台,接着当地刮起沙尘暴,导致当天的战斗行动中断。

星期三,伊军控制着摩苏尔东部地带的阵地,当天空气中的湿度非常大,云层密集,限制了无人机等飞行器的能见度。

美联社报道,伊拉克准将海德尔·法迪勒表示,由于天气原因,星期三没有进攻的计划。
