Taking into account the humanitarian situation in Mosul and the predicted flow of civilians, Germany plans to allocate €34 million emergency assistance to residents of the region, Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development Gerd Müller told Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung.

The money will be also transferred to the logistics centers in northern Iraq, which are engaged in distribution of humanitarian aid. In addition, Germany will help to place refugees in temporary accommodations and to provide them with medical care, DW reported.

Gerd Müller does not expect a quick victory over ISIS fighters near Mosul. The minister noted that they should be ready for months-long position fights and, first of all, Turkey should be ready for inflow of refugees.

As a result of these fights up to million civilians will have to leave their homes in Mosul, he added.
