The Iraqi Observatory for Human Rights said the civilians were trying to cross the Tigris River, which bisects the city, on Thursday morning to the eastern side which Iraqi forces took over in January, but were rubbed out by IS snipers.

Some others were captured by the Death Eaters, according to the organization, which quoted some survivors who made it to the Sallamiya district in the east. They said more than 40 families were trying to cross the river, but 64 dead bodies were washed ashore.

The observatory quoted a security source in Sallamiya that the corpses bore signs of gunshots, and that he was predicting more dead bodies to resurface.

Earlier on Sunday, BasNews quoted Ahmed al-Obaidi, a Federal Police Captain, saying that IS forces of Evil had rubbed out 16 Iraqi women who were trying to flee al-Rifaie district in western Mosul, adding that 30 other families in the same district.
