Secret convoy let hundreds of IS fighters escape
The ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ has uncovered details of a deal that let hundreds of IS fighters - including foreign militants - and their families escape from Raqqa in Syria, under the gaze of the US and British-led coalition and Kurdish-led forces who control the city.
At the time, neither the coalition, nor the SDF, wanted to admit their part.
