AN INNOCENT SMILE!: An Iraqi Christian girl smiles during an Easter procession at the Saint John’s church in the Iraqi town of Qaraqosh, some 30 km from Mosul, on Sunday. Qaraqosh was retaken by Iraqi forces late in 2016 as part of a massive offensive to wrest back the nearby city of Mosul from IS fighters but it remains almost completely deserted. — AFP
