Syrian troops and Kurdish fighters ousted Daesh group from the northeastern city of Hasakeh on Tuesday after more than a month of fighting, a monitoring group said.
Daesh "was expelled by the army from Zuhur, the last district in which it was present in Hasakeh, and its fighters have been pushed to the southern outskirts of the city," said Syrian Observatory for Human Rights director Rami Adel Rahman.
Control of Hasakeh is divided between Kurdish fighters and government troops, and both have battled to push Daesh out of the city since the jihadists entered last month.
