Iraqi soldier bursts into tears after finding his mother in Mosul

(Baonghean.vn) - A video filmed by the BBC about the emotional moment of reunion between an Iraqi soldier and his mother in Mosul city is being widely shared on social networks.

The moment of reunion between Saad and his mother.

Two years ago, Saad left his hometown of Mosul to fight in the Iraqi army. Two years later, when his hometown of Mosul was taken over by IS jihadists, Saad returned to fight to liberate his hometown.

Saad lost contact with his mother during the battle to liberate Mosul. In the video, which lasts more than a minute, Saad is seen anxiously searching for his mother in buses filled with people heading to refugee camps. Saad is afraid that he will not find his mother and that she is no longer alive.

With the help of passengers on the bus, the soldier finally found his mother. At that moment, Saad burst into tears in his mother's arms.

Saad and his mother's reunion is one of many that are taking place in Mosul as the city is being liberated. The battle may last for many more months. But so far, more than 40,000 Iraqis have been evacuated in the past month./.
