The ISIS terrorist group has lost about 25 percent of its territory inside of Iraq and Syria, according to a recent U.S. assessment
It comes after Iraqi, Kurdish, and U.S.-led forces attacked the group in Tikrit, located in northern Iraq.
“We assess ISIL’s front lines have been pushed back in northern and central Iraq,” Pentagon spokesman Col. Steve Warren said last week, referring to another name for ISIS. “ISIL no longer has complete freedom of movement in roughly 25 percent of populated areas of Iraqi territory where they once operated freely,” he said, according to ABC News.
