Battle for Raqqa: is Isis being driven out?

It was the capital of their self-styled caliphate for three years. The base from where the Islamic State terrorized the Middle East and planned violent atrocities across Europe. But now ISIS may finally be about to be driven from the Syrian city of Raqqa.
Lindsey Hilsum and her team spent several days alongside The Syrian Democratic Forces forces in Raqqa, where the fighters were still facing stiff resistance from the encircled IS militants. She joins us now from the northern Syrian city of Qamishli.
This film is reported by Lindsey Hilsum, produced by Thom Walker and was filmed by Soren Munk.

Haha! The soldiers say that they will take the area in a month. Let's ask a civilian reporter who has probably never fired a rifle in her life, if she thinks they are right. Ffs. Get a grip. Lol.
