Mosul has been liberated, where to next?

Now that Mosul has been liberated by the Iraqi army, which region still under ISIS rule in Iraq should be taken care of first?
Personally I feel that the Hawija pocket must be taken care of, because I think it is the most dangerous and threatens Kirkuk. Also it is very close to Baghdad and other large cities where ISIS can organize a lot of terrorist attacks.

Has it been liberated?

Yes. PM Al-Abadi was in Mosul today to announce the complete liberation. That includes any left-over fighters in basements or sleeper cells. Every building and every refugee has been checked. (Not that that rules out any ISIS militants being able to slip through, but the city of Mosul is secure and no neighbourhood can fall under ISIS control anymore).

Finally. It's going to take a long time for that city to reach its former glory though.

where basicly back to 2011 i think this wont be resolved anytime soon at least untill the piscot lines are permently gone....

Eradicate ISIS!
Tbh, I don't know. It could be either of those sectors

I think the Iraqi's should focus on securing their own country before moving on ISIS in Syria.
