    I wouldn't look that relaxed in a water gun fight because of the risk of getting water in my eye, but there she is.

    I believe that'sa member of the YPJ, an all-female Kurdish fighting force. ISIS is terrified of them.

    yea, the clothing (bright colors) goes with that. it's considered a bad death to die at a woman's hands so the second IS guys see fighters with bright clothing they either flee or become less hesitant to engage.

    IS basically believes in cooties.

    Their zoo was all kinds of fucked up and there were only two survivors. Simba, a lion, and Lulu, a bear.

    They were finally rescued https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/12/world/middleeast/mosul-zoo-rescue.html

    The pocket is essentially empty, ISIS had time to retreat before the Tiger Forces and regular SAA met up.

    Nothing is ever "finished" as we understand it. The tunnel systems have been prepared for over a year. ISIS fighters just pop up in another location. You may now have Mosul but in a matter of time, another area will be established as base of operation. I think we would be shocked if we knew a true, no-bullshit number of EKIA.

    ISF saying there's only about 300 ISIS fighters left in Mosul and they occupy about 500 square meters of the city.

    That can't be right. That's like a 25 x 25 yard area. Basically one building.

    Lt. Gen. Sami al-Aridi of Iraq's special forces told The Associated Press that the militants' hold on Mosul has shrunk to a 500 square meter (600 sq. yard) area. A large number of civilians are believed to be trapped in the IS-run enclave, with around 1,500 fleeing with every 100-meter (yard) advance by Iraqi forces.

    Extremely sad documentary about life in Jobar, a rebel held suburb of Damascus. Contains footage of aftermath of the sarin gas attack.
