Yeah I am also following the news daily and on computer hourly.
Using this site btw: http://isis.liveuamap.com
It is ofcourse good news they got the city but it is not really an important big city their were estimated 20.000 residents with 500 isis troops and the city was surrounded for alteast two months before they captured it. Hundreds of those 500 isis troops escaped recently with using human shields.
When ISIS is still in control of 1-2 million people 20.000 doesn't sound a lot especially from now on it only gets harder. It is kind of troublesome that it all takes so long.
