In Syria ISIS has lost 99.5% of its territory, the US says. Reduced to just several villages on the Euphrates, people wonder what comes next. “No foreign actor will have an easy time of keeping ISIS out for long,” Nicholas Heras says to the Washington Post
The US Deputy Secretary of Defense says: ISIS has lost “99.5% plus” of the territory it once held in Syria & Iraq, “within a couple of weeks it will be 100%.”
“ISIS is no longer able to govern in Syria, ISIS no longer has freedom to mass forces, Syria is no longer a safe haven,” says Shanahan.
