In this mosque 2014, IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared himself Khalifa (Islamic religious leader). Baghdadi, who first appeared publicly in the mosque, remained confidential.

The eight-century-old al-Nuri Masjid and Meenar of Mosul, now Iraq's second largest city, are now subject to the IS militants' courage. However, immediately after their demolition of the Masjid-Mehra, the militants who made a quick statement by their Amaq propaganda allege that the US was responsible for the attack. The US-led allies rejected the statement and condemned the act. It has criticized Mosul as a horrific crime against the town and Iraq.

Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi condemned IS militants This is the frustration of jihadists who have been losers in the eight-month war in Mosul. He has responded that the IS has officially announced his defeat. Our troops trooped into the interior of the ancient city. According to Lieutenant General Abdul Amir, commander in charge of the Mosul operation, Diyish (IS) terrorists blasted hundreds of mosques and another historic crime when they arrived at Noi Masjid.
