US-backed force says resuming anti-IS offensive in east Syria
A Kurdish-led force backed by the US-led anti-jihadist coalition said Sunday that it was resuming its offensive against the Islamic State group in eastern Syria.
The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), joint Arab-Kurdish units, had announced a suspension to their operation on October 31 after Turkey shelled Kurdish militia posts in northern Syria.
The SDF said the resumption followed "intensive contacts" with the international coalition.
