BAGHDAD — Militants from the Islamic State group blocked all mobile phone networks in the largest Iraqi city they control, Mosul, accusing informants in the city of tipping off coalition forces to their whereabouts, residents told The Associated Press on Thursday. Residents described a scene of “chaos” and “paralysis” in the city Thursday, a day after the militants announced their decision on their Mosul-based radio network.
