CNN: New Video Shows ISIS Losing Grip on Raqqa

‘This is what a reign of terror looks like when it’s in collapse’

EXCERPT:

WALSH (voice-over): "This is what a reign of terror looks like when it’s in collapse. The traffic is normal, so is the market. You can tell ISIS are losing here on the streets of Raqqa, the capitol of their fast shrinking caliphate, for one thing. It’s actually pretty easy to film them in secret. Using a hidden body camera could be a death sentence for this activist, but in these besieged streets lined with sandbags, encircled by American-backed Syrian fighters, they just don’t fear ISIS anymore. So, even this foreign fighter from Belgium is a target as he makes a front line fashion choice. Elsewhere, two Russian speaking fighters appear to discuss air strikes."
