Over the last two days some 1500 men, women and children have fled the
Islamic State-controlled areas to the Kurdistan Region's capital Erbil.

The Kurdistan Region has been hosting 1.7 million IDPs. Kurdish officials expect more people from Mosul and its outskirts will flee ISIS in the near future. Especially when the long anticipated offensive to force ISIS from that city transpires.
