Fears of post-Mosul sectarianism dominate Arabic social media

The heavy influence of Shia militias in the Iraqi operation to retake Mosul, and their history of sectarianism in other liberated regions of Iraq, have some questioning the future of Mosul's residents.

The risk of further displacement of Iraq's Sunni community has received particular emphasis.

Translation: "IS attack a Sunni area. Iraqi forces withdraw. IS control the area and kill people. IS withdraw. Iraqi forces return to kill Sunnis under the pretext of IS being within their midst #The_lie_of_IS"

Translation: "The world will witness on live air the annihilation of Mosul and the continuation of displacing Sunnis from Iraq in the name of the war against IS"

Translation: "The Islamic State group. It is a political trick to kill Sunnis and displace them from their regions"
