ISIS strongholds in Syria fall to government forces
The self-declared ISIS caliphate continues to shrink as Syrian forces pushed ISIS militants out of the city of Deir el-Zour, one of the last ISIS strongholds in Syria. In Iraq, government troops are keeping up the fight in Qaim, a border town used by ISIS to traffic weapons.
The recapture of Deir el-Zour on the west bank of the Euphrates River is also another victory for President Bashar Assad's forces, though largely symbolic in the Syrian military's bigger fight to capture most of the oil-rich province along the border with Iraq. Deir el-Zour, which had been divided into a government-held and an ISIS-held part for nearly three years, is the largest city in eastern Syria and the capital of the province with the same name. It is also the largest to be recaptured by the Syrian government from ISIS. read more |
