Mosul Eye (Arabic: عين الموصل‎‎) is an anonymous blogger who posts regular updates on life in the city of Mosul, Iraq, which was occupied by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) for 2 years and 39 days. Mosul was liberated on July 10, 2017, after a battle that lasted 9 months and 4 days. The blog is frequently cited as one of the few reliable sources documenting life under ISIL rule[1] and has been called a critical source of information for journalists and scholars.[2][3] Though anonymous, the blogger and his content have been judged to be authentic by experts.[4]
