SWISS PRESS PHOTO 18 - 1. PREIS AUSLAND: ALEX KUEHNI - On 9th April 2017, an Iraqi army sniper shoots from the hidden depths of a room, so as not to betray his position. We are in Mosul, where a battle has been raging for months. The recapture of the northern Iraqi city from the terrorist organization Islamic State is reaching its final phase. The air strikes and artillery fire are over, now the fight is taken house to house, man to man.
