Islamic State (ISIS) jihadists have withdrawn from the last territory they held in Aleppo province in Syria, after the Syrian army retook the Ithriya-Rasafa road and areas east of Khanaser, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported on Friday, according to Reuters.
A military media unit run by the army's ally Hezbollah said soldiers had captured the Ithriya-Rasafa road and besieged ISIS's positions east of Khanaser. It did not say the jihadist group had abandoned those positions.
