According to the representative of Kurds who took part in operations in East Mosul, Iraqi forces discovered the walls of the Palace of the Assyrian king of Asarhaddon when examined underground communications of terrorists. The ruler was the head of Ancient Assyria from about 680 in 669 BC. In addition, before the accession to the Assyrian throne, Esarhaddon was the Governor of Babylon.
