3,000 ISIS fighters and their family members surrender to SDF forces

Footage filmed on Tuesday allegedly shows what Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) described as Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) militants and their family members surrendering near the last IS stronghold in Syria, Baghouz.

Scores of injured men, women and children are filmed being helped up the mountainside. Later food is distributed amongst them and they are driven off on vans and trucks.

This follows Baghouz being heavily pounded by the coalition forces overnight.

Head of the SDF Press Office in northern Syria, Mustafa Bali, said on twitter that 3,000 IS fighters and their families surrendered to the SDF since Monday.
