CRUSHED: Russia and Turkey plan to demolish ISIS

Turkey said it wants to carry out the destruction of the bloodthirsty group "together" with Moscow.

Foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said: "We will discuss all the details. We have always called on Russia to carry out anti-Daesh operations together.

       

WORRIED: ISIS has lost ground in Syria and Iraq

"Let’s fight against the terrorist group together, so that we can clear it out as soon as possible."

The proposition comes after Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan met with Vladimir Putin this week to "restart dialogue and restart relations".

Tension has boiled over between the two states since a Russian warplane was shot down by Turkish forces near the Syrian border in November last year.

ISIS is now preparing to wage more attacks following military defeats in Iraq and Syria.

Commander Lieutenant General Sean MacFarland, who heads the US-led Operation Inherent Resolve, issued the bleak assessment after spending almost a year fighting against ISIS in Iraq.

The experienced general said the future of the Islamist group was as an al-Qaeda style insurgency once its territory had been carved up in the Middle East.

CALLS: Mevlut Cavusoglu called for the alliance

 

 

He said: "Military success in Iraq and Syria will not necessarily mean the end of Daesh.

"We can expect the enemy to adapt, to morph into a true insurgent force and terrorist organisation capable of horrific attacks like the one here on July 3rd in Baghdad and those others we've seen around the world."
