Prior to Zarif’s departure, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qasemi said Saturday that the expansion of ties with Latin American and African countries has always been on the agenda of the Islamic Republic’s foreign policy.
The militants were fleeing north, towards Turkey, after being pushed out of Manbij following weeks of fighting, as reported by The Guardian, and covered by Al Alam.
According to the SDF, ISIS took 2,000 hostages as they were fleeing the city to the north to use as human shields, but the hostages were later released.
