In short .... since President Trump's inauguration .... there has been a change in rhetoric from Moscow (they are no longer demanding U.S. cooperation in the war against ISIS), and the tempo of the war in Syria itself is changing, with ISIS positions in the east of Syria being besieged on all levels .... U.S.-backed Syrian force starts new phase of Raqqa assault (Reuters). Is there a linkage? Again .... my gut is saying yes.
