For more than 28 hours, CNN senior international correspondent Arwa Damon and photojournalist Brice Lane were with Iraqi special forces as they pushed forward into ISIS-held Mosul on Friday.

Read Damon's account of the battle, from inside armored vehicles to hiding, trapped, with a family in their home.
