Honestly like LT I don't see the Mail itself celebrating.
The tile is -

'ISIS goes up in smoke: US air strike pounds small remaining area of Mosul held by the terror group as Iraq declares victory in the city after a bloody eight-month battle'

No whooping and cheering from the Mail even in the title.

Plenty of pics of Iraqis celebrating but I won't condemn them for that since they've just been involved in a long and bloody battle to take their city back from an evil death cult who've been slaughtering them every day.I'd be fecking cheering too.

Then Emanuel Macron and Michael Fallon say this -

'French President Emmanuel Macron - whose country is part of the coalition that has conducted airstrikes and provided training and assistance to Iraqi forces on the battlefield, welcomed the defeat.

He tweeted: 'Mosul liberated from ISIS: France pays homage to all those, who alongside our troops, contributed to this victory.'

Britain's Defence Minister Michael Fallon also praised Iraq on Sunday for defeating the Islamic State group - referring to the militants by its Arabic name Daesh - in Mosul but warned that more has to be done to combat the jihadists.'

'I congratulate Prime Minister (Haider) Abadi, and the Iraqi forces who have been fighting on the ground with great bravery and care against a brutal opponent,' Fallon said in a statement.

'Daesh has total disregard for innocent civilian life and we should welcome their defeat in a city that was ground zero for their so-called caliphate,' he added, using an Arabic acronym for IS.

As part of Britain's involvement in the US-led coalition against the jihadist group, Fallon said British forces had struck 750 targets in the battle for Mosul.

But 'there is still more to do' around the city and in the broader region, Fallon said.

'This barbaric group remains dug in west of the Euphrates and clearing operations in and around Mosul will be needed because of the threat from improvised explosive devices,' he added.

I suppose you could interpret those two as celebrating.Again not the site itself though.
