| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] A few days separate the International Coalition in cooperation with the Syrian Democratic Forces from marking the fourth year of their fight against ISIS, which has been confined to three Syrian towns near the Iraqi borders. The greatest battle involved dragging out ISIS’ "amirs" or princes and leaders and to defeat them in their stronghold of the Syrian city of Raqqa. The latter fell under ISIS rule in mid-2014 and had been taken as their operating, financing and planning headquarters from where several terrorist attacks targeting a number of Arab, Moslem and Western capitals were first hatched. The operation to free the town of Raqqa, codenamed Operation Wrath of Euphrates, started in the summer of 2016 and proceeded until the liberation and restoration of the city in October 2017. |
