Mar 2019. SDF final assault on Baghouz in Syria

March 2019. The United States-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) have advanced into the final territorial enclave held by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS) where heavy fighting is under way. The Kurdish-led SDF expect the battle to be over “soon“, the head of the SDF media office, Mustafa Bali, said on Saturday. The SDF were advancing on two fronts into the tiny enclave at Baghouz in Syria’s Deir Az Zor province at the Iraq border. Three SDF fighters had been wounded so far. The SDF began a final assault to capture the enclave at Baghouz on Thursday, aiming to wipe out the last vestige of the territorial rule that once spanned a third of Syria and Iraq.
