The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) successfully captured the last footholds of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) in the strategic city of Al-Tabqah. This operation marked the conclusion of the Battle of Tabqa, which was crucial for the SDF's efforts to recapture territory from ISIL and restore control over northern Syria.
