Syrian democratic forces liberated al-Shaddadi city, located 60km south of al-Hasakah after a fierce battle with ISIS ended in their escape and loss of their lives and equipment. The democratic forces were able to take control over al-Shaddadi, where ISIS resided in south al-Hasakah suburbs after an attack that lasted for a few days on the city. The Kurdish forces were able to cut two of the supply roads used by ISIS, where one connects al-Shaddadi to Mosul in Iraq and to al-Raqqa, the ISIS stronghold in Syria.
