1:00Now PlayingISIS lost its territory and faced defeat through a combination of international coalition efforts, local resistance, and military campaigns. The U.S.-led coalition, along with regional partners, conducted airstrikes targeting ISIS strongholds. Local forces, including Iraqi and Syrian troops, Kurdish fighters, and various militias, engaged in ground operations to reclaim key cities. The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) played a crucial role in dislodging ISIS from its de facto capital, Raqqa.
The Battle of Mosul (2016–2017) was a crucial offensive to liberate this Iraqi city from ISIS. A coalition of Iraqi security forces, Kurdish Peshmerga, and international support successfully pushed back ISIS militants. The intense urban warfare resulted in significant casualties, but Mosul's liberation marked a significant blow to ISIS's territorial control.
The collaborative efforts, spanning multiple fronts and involving diverse forces, led to the gradual dismantling of the caliphate, eroding its territorial control and ultimately contributing to ISIS's significant military setbacks. However different cells keep operating in the region.
