Página quince: La batalla virtual contra el Estado Islámico

Los defensores iraquíes se desmoralizaron y huyeron cuando el grupo terrorista atacó Mosul, en el clímax de su insurgencia en el 2014, y millones de personas vieron en tiempo real lo que ocurría siguiendo la etiqueta #AllEyesOnISIS.

But the die-hard IS fighters who stayed to defend the remnants of their "caliphate" struck back with a wave of suicide bombings, according to the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces.

WASHINGTON D. C.– El presidente estadounidense Donald Trump declaró en diciembre del 2018 la victoria sobre el Estado Islámico (EI), con un tuit en el que sostuvo que el grupo terrorista estaba “prácticamente derrotado”, y otros países de la región, incluida Turquía, deberían poder fácilmente con lo que quedaba.

En los primeros tres meses de este año, Trump dijo, o tuiteó, 16 veces que el EI estaba completamente derrotado o que lo estaría pronto.
