City of Raqqa in Syria was seized by opposition forces in 2013 before it was claimed as the de facto capital of Daesh terrorists in 2014 and targeted by Syrian Air Force, Russia, the US and other countries. The majority of non-Sunni religious sites in the city have been completely destroyed by the terrorist Daesh fighters. Following long clashes in October 2017, the city was released from the grip of the Islamic state, ISIL.
