The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), supported by the US-led coalition’s airpower, artillery and military advisers, have captured the villages of Rabi, Khatuniyah, Mazraat Qahtaniyah and Hawi Hawa in the western countryside of Raqqah. The villages had been controlled by ISIS terrorists.
With this advance, the SDF encircled 4 others ISIS-held villages: Sakura, Bir al-Hashim, al-Adnaniyah, Sukhuriyah and Mazrat Yarub. They will likely be cleared from ISIS soon.
