- The city of Raqqa symbolises the tragic fate of Syria over the past 12 years. From the start of the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad in 2011, the northern city was a major target for rebel groups. It then became the stronghold of Islamic State group terrorists, who made Raqqa the capital of their self-proclaimed caliphate. The city went through three years of hell - suffering atrocities, public hangings and slave auctions - before being bombed and then liberated in 2017 by an international US-led coalition. Since then, the "Pearl of the Euphrates" has struggled to get back on track.

What peace. US is still training ISIS and sending them on terror missions.
I hope one day raqqa can be a better big modern city again its sad
Yes, I was hoping for a longer video doc on Raqqua today.
Nice documentary, only quite short.
i feel sorry for poor chidlren
Great coverage - it's sad to see yet another country destabilized by foreign agents.
It's cool to love everyone as much as you can regardless of religion. Jetem peace to the world.
The wives of Jihadists blamed for their husbands joined the IS. But they still live in the IS ideology even though the IS was defeated many years ago.
True
Humans life has cycle around good and bad time and situation....
Remaining and Expanding

@@peabaseit's the usa
@@Qariban. The USA are self-sufficient in oil nowadays. Try to keep up with the news.
@@peabasestill stealing oil
Protect Syrian people.
Raqqa used to be sunni majority city and now it turned in to kurdish city.
yeah you sure miss isis turkish trade
See what happens after America leaves
Kurds are Sunnis
can we have a video on the rebuilt of Raqqa city it must be better now ISIS is gone from there lives
Why would they rebuild the city wall when most housing and infrastructure is still damaged? Not really a priority unless they think it could somehow attract tourists.
Its not a city wall but historical place.
I like how this is all you took out of this video.
@FactStorm It's not. This is mearly the part I don't understand. There is no point in asking a question that I already know. Perhaps your intelligence is insufficiently low to understand that.
LOL butt-hurt much?@@maarten1115
@@maarten1115the city walls are indeed a historical and cultural landmark and are apart of the Baghdad gate. All can be done at the same time. Nothing wrong with wanting to persevere their heritage.
that was awful translation. insanely misleading translation. why are you making it seem like they're putting children to work? that father said he brings his child to work because he can't go to school and can't be left alone at home. they're not putting children to labor; they're bringing them to work to keep an eye on them. the child didn't say "it's more important to work" he said "i don't want to be left home alone, so it's better to come with my dad to work"
Its a western news channel what do you expect 😂
liberated in 2017 by an international US-led coalition? Tho that area is Kurdish Controlled, Syria is liberated because of Assad-Russian forces
That looks like « liberation » to you ?
All the fault of the US, Russia, France, Syrian regime and Kurdish militias who don’t let Sunni Muslims live in peace
Kurds are also Sunnis though.
No it's not . Syria was destroyed due to western backed created terrorist group Isis and Al Nusra front terrorist group .
Small boy ram may God bless him pls educate him basic arabic maths etc feel so sad
Raqqa has not yet been liberated, it will be when the Syrian government returns
The Kurds are now allied with Assad.
When people talk about the rule by any Islamic State group, they mean ISLAM as the rule. While some people in Syria and in other countries ruled by ISLAM, I am starting to understand that myself when learning about religions and their roles they play in the last days.
Syrian Government is secular tho??
