U.S.-backed Forces Advance On IS Militants At Syrian Turkish Border

U.S.-backed forces fighting Islamic State near the Syrian-Turkish
border said on Thursday they had reached the militants' last main
route in and out of the city of Manbij, their stronghold in the area.
The report was confirmed by monitors who say the Kurdish militia and
Arab allies were in firing distance of the road where they hope to cut
off the militants link to the outside world.
