After evacuation of thousands of civilians and our comrades who held hostage in #Baghouz, operation to clear the last remaining pocket of ISIS has just started at 18:00 this evening. @mustefabali
Now the end is near. ISIS is a Great Evil. No spin can make it anything else.
Final assault on remaining pocket of ISIS in Eastern Syria

Reliable sources told me there are around 300 battle hardened ISIS fighters in #Baghouz who refuse to surrender and vow to fight until end. Unless something unexpected happens, #SDF fighters will be able to achieve territorial defeat of ISIS in 3-4 days #TwitterKurds

Go get them!
We should flatten the place, rather than sacrifice one of our allies’ lives.
I guess we stopped using daisy cutters. Start the day with a few of them on the holdouts.
300 of them remain. We ended 300 Wagner group farther south in Deir Ezzor last year with AC-130?H, Blackhawks and precision artillery. It happened very quickly.
I agree. This is just happening. Not delayed. Less than an hour ago. Was 20 minutes when I started posting.
Is there any live video feed?
No, it was a video shot by person on the ground.
With it narrowed down to 300 left, a live feed might work. Question is, how long will this last.
I suspect they will be given a chance to surrender, sounds like they already refused that.
I want a shock and awe bombing / artillery rampage … on TV!
smile.
I just want them ended with prejudice.
They have caused enough evil for a lifetime. End it.
Seems like a Moab would be nice....
Maybe they will clear the area before the President’s CPAC speech tomorrow - if they are supported by heavy bombardment.
Reduce it to rubble, and bouncy the rubble a few times.
Sniper fire is cleaner, gives remaining civilian captives, if there are any, a chance.

The US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) said on February 28 that they had tightened their siege on Islamic State fighters remaining in Baghuz, in east Deir Ezzor. The Kurdish news outlet, ANHA, shared this footage on February 28, described as showing hundreds of Islamic State fighters surrendering to SDF near Baghuz.

They are about 9 hours ahead of our time.

9 hours ahead?!? What are you, one of those Deniers that the Earth is Flat?!? ;^) /rimshot
Thanks TF.
I’m thinking from Central Time. Forget others in the US are not close to that. Should have looked it up and referenced it correctly.
Sorry.
I looked it up, currently it is 5:40 AM Saturday March 2, 2019 in Deir Ezzor, Syria.
That means they are now 8 hours ahead of Texas Time (CT).
