ISIS has lost 28% of its territory in Syria, Iraq: Reports
Islamic State has lost around 28% of the territory it controlled, with the group losing 16% in 2016 itself, according to reports. However, reports suggest IS losses have slowed down during the last three months, coinciding with Russia reducing the number of air strikes against IS targets. Notably, it lost Syria's Manbij which is strategically important to ISIS capital Raqqa.
