DW: 'Islamic State' convoy stranded in Syrian desert splits in two
Lebanon's Hezbollah said US-warplanes were preventing both the advance of a convoy of 'IS' fighters and their families, and humanitarian aid. The US-coalition refused to accept the terms of the deal made with Syria.
An Islamic State (IS) evacuation convoy that was attempting to relocate IS fighters and their families to militant-controlled territory in eastern Syria has split in two, after being blocked in the desert by US-backed forces.
