answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/12/2016 answer text <p>Operations started in Mosul and surrounding areas on 16 October 2016. UN casualty figures for Ninewah (the governorate in which Mosul is located) estimate that 332 civilians were killed in November and 566 civilians in October. The UN, the UK and our partners are clear that the situation in Mosul is a result of Daesh’s utter disregard for civilians. The Iraqi Security Forces and the Coalition are making every effort during operations to protect civilians. The UN cannot verify these figures and state that they are likely to be at the lower end of the scale. The numbers are not disaggregated by the cause of civilian deaths.</p><p>As of 9 December, more than 85,000 people have been displaced from Mosul, half of them children. The UK is supporting the UN and partners to assist these people and around 45,000 people still inside Mosul in areas re-taken from Daesh, including children. This includes vital humanitarian assistance, including food, water, shelter, medical and protection services.</p><p> </p><p><strong><br> </strong></p><p> </p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 12/12/2016 17:24:18 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/07/2016 answer text <p>Our humanitarian aid is provided on the basis of humanitarian need. The funding commitments listed in the Answer of 15 June 2016 to Question 39874 support men, women and children affected by the conflict; it is not possible to say exactly how much has been used specifically to support children. Since the UN reports that the conflict in Yemen has spread to 20 out of 22 governorates, it is likely that most children in Yemen have been directly or indirectly affected by the conflict.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 20/07/2016 13:31:56 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
