US Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has criticised her Republican counterpart Donald Trump for saying that the week-old effort to retake the Iraqi city of Mosul from the so-called Islamic State militant group was going badly.
"He's basically declaring defeat before the battle has even started," Mrs Clinton said at a campaign event in New Hampshire.
"He's proving to the world what it means to have an unqualified commander in chief."
In a tweet on Sunday, Mr Trump, the Republican nominee for the 8 November election, said the "attack on Mosul is turning out to be a total disaster. We gave them months of notice. US is looking so dumb".
