(IraqiNews.com) Baghdad – On Thursday, the US State Department described ISIS as “very dangerous”, considering its control of new areas is “no doubt”, while expected that the battle against the organization will last for five years.
US State Department spokesman John Kirby said in remarks reported by “CNN” site, “ISIS has achieved some successes recently; there is no doubt about that, but they certainly do not deal in the same way that they were dealing in last June ; they cannot communicate and coordinate with each other as in the past. ”
“I think that it is important to look at the overall picture and do not deduct certain news and evaluate our operations through them. we did not take seriously the fall of Rmadi, as well as ISIS control of Palmyra; we recognize that the organization is very serious and will continue to try to control the new land and will be able to take control of new areas , there is no doubt about it, ” Kirby added.
