US-led coalition reemphasizes continued support for Peshmerga and SDF against ISIS
ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – The United States-led coalition once again stressed its continued support of the Peshmerga and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in their fight against ISIS on Friday.
The Coalition Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF-OIR), the official name for the US coalition, repeatedly reemphasized the importance of this cooperation for ensuring ISIS's defeat.
The coalition "continues to work closely with our #Peshmerga partners to strengthen their ability to operate as a capable & effective force," the official CJTF-OIR account tweeted on Friday.
"Our continued #AdviseAssistEnable mission makes us #StrongerTogether to #DefeatDaesh," it added, using the Arabic acronym for ISIS.

"Our work with our #SDF partners is about enabling them to deny Daesh remnants the means & opportunities to resurge & maintaining safe, secure & prosperous communities in NE Syria so children like these can know peace," read the tweet.
