I’m utterly puzzled by the map shown. ISIS has lost Ar Raqqah, Dayr Ezzor, Albu Kamal, Al Qaim, all of Kirkuk and Ninevah...

They’re down to remote stretches of desert SE of Ash Shaddadah, S of Dayr Az Zawr, and some camps they’ve won from Al Qaesa NW of Tadmur and that red spot in Dara.

[Alas Babylon!]

In the original article, right under the map it says:

ISIS areas of influence as of May 2017. (Map courtesy of the Global Coalition Against Daesh)

I would like to see the December 2017 map. This one shows way too much ISIS controlled territory that is no longer ISIS controlled.

I cannot comment on the contents of the map. Article says it’s from May, 2017.

My post was to help the OP with posting an oversized graphic.
