BEIRUT—The U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) said on Wednesday its campaign to capture Raqqa from the ISIS terrorist group was in its final stages and its fighters had seized 80 percent of the city.
In its fight against a separate operation waged by the Syrian army and its allies, ISIS has collapsed along the west bank of the Euphrates downstream of Raqqa, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Wednesday.
