SDF has made steady progress in taking this city. In the process they have allowed as many as possible of the civilians to escape. Trying to minimize the loss of life of those captive to ISIS.

Soon this will be over and they work of liberating Raqqa will begin. There is some talk of negotiations of ISIS leaders wanting to make a deal to exit Raqqa. That would reduce the civilian deaths. And probably allow some ISIS animals to escape. (but to the south it is open country, escape might be fleeting. USAF might take care of that.)
