U.S.: Last Pocket of ISIS Fighters Surrounded in Syria
(Washington Examiner) Jamie McIntyre - U.S.-backed fighters are closing in on the "last pocket of ISIS resistance" in Syria, and remaining ISIS fighters are becoming increasingly desperate, the U.S. military said Tuesday. The final offensive against ISIS in Syria was started three weeks ago by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), a coalition of Arab and Kurdish fighters trained, equipped, and advised by the U.S. U.S. military spokesman Col. Sean Ryan said that ISIS fighters are "in the final throes of their evil ambitions."
