The counterattack began from the west of a riverside pocket in the Syrian village of Baghouz where the Islamic State group has been making its last stand, said a commander with the U.S-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, or SDF.
The weeks-old push on Baghouz has also taken a toll on the Kurdish forces, some of whom have been battling IS for the past six years. For the last few weeks, the militants remained holed up in the shrinking space along the eastern banks of the Euphrates River. Since early February, more than 10,000 civilians were evacuated from the IS-held pocket, most of them family members of IS fighters.
Afrin said his forces are advancing slowly, taking some positions on the edge of a tent encampment where thousands of civilians and militants had been holed up in recent weeks.

The war has been won in other countries. immigration has imported it within our own borders now we have to watch our own neighborhood to prevent Terror. They have changed tactics from overt battle to covert battle coming up behind you with a knife rather than in front of you. So as we should follow their tradition, they should either be beheaded on video and sent to the family by way of social media or placed in an Iron cage and cooked alive (Any one remember that pilot?). Is that the correct punishment in the ISIS book of Justice?
