The battle for Fallujah is getting close to the city center.
By capturing the Albu Shejel area ISIS has lost control of parts of the Iraq-Jordan highway.
Though Shiite militia commanders say that civilians are not been targeted by the attacks, according to some reports tens of civilians have been killed and hundreds more wounded by Iraqi Army and Shiite militia since the operation started.
13-years-old Hassan who joined the Shiite militia to battle ISIS on the fatwa of Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, says that with the help of Imam Hussein, his bullets reach ISIS militants and kill them.
ISIS belongings and their abandoned weapons lay everywhere.
This sniper rifle made by ISIS is one of those weapons they have left behind.
According militia leaders, many of their fighters have been killed by this rifle.
