The End of ISIS? ISIS Declares State Of Emergency As U.S, Russian And Syrian Forces Close In On Raqqa


From CBS:
The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, has declared a state of emergency. 
The U.S. military believes the terror organization is planning a full-scale defense of its de facto capital of Raqqa in northern Syria. 
There are reports that ISIS is moving equipment and fighters in and around the city, presumably in the expectation that local forces will try to capture it. 
Raqqa has been an ISIS stronghold for much of the war in Syria. 
The terror group controls more than half of Syria. On Friday, suspected Syrian government airstrikes in the northern city of Idlib killed at least 12 people, activists said.
