Iraqi Day/Twitter LONDON (Reuters) - Dramatic footage released this week shows the moment a bulldozer driven by an Iraqi security force member tackles an explosive-filled car driven by a suicide bomber, offering a rare, close-up view of the fierce battle for control of Mosul. According to the Iraqi media outlet that uploaded the footage on Wednesday, the incident took place in west Mosul, where Iraqi forces have been engaged in fierce fighting with Islamic State militants as they seek to push them out of the city. The footage, shot on a camera apparently mounted in the driver's cabin, shows the bulldozer confronting a dust-covered car driving toward it, using its front bucket to push the car toward a nearby building. The car then appears to explode with a flash of fire and smoke.
