Raqqa Airstrikes

Syrian government forces and their allies have recaptured territory from ISIS in countryside southeast of its stronghold Raqqa after air strikes in the area, a pro-Damascus military media unit and war monitors reported.

It took Ahmed Brazu and his family 20 terrifying hours to escape this ravaged city, the capital of the Islamic State's imagined caliphate that has become an increasingly perilous battlefield.

A U.S.-led coalition carried out at least 30 air strikes in Syria against Islamic State militants in the northern province of Raqqa on Saturday, a monitoring group said.

Activists have raised the death toll from a series of Syrian Government airstrikes on the Islamic State group's stronghold in northeastern Syria to at least 95.
