What is the story of ISIS?
The rise of the terrorist organization ISIS took place in 2014 during the Iraq-Syria war. During this time, IS had taken a large part of the territory of both the countries under its jurisdiction through terrorist action and declared it independently as a part of the Islamic State.
When did you lose your dominance?
In 2017, the Islamic State lost control of the territories it captured in Iraq following an offensive by Iraqi and Western forces. After the western countries declared it a global terrorist organization, continuous airstrikes continued in the areas under its control in Syria as well. According to government figures in 2019, the army took back the areas under the control of IS in Syria.
