The U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces on Sunday launched their "final" assault on Raqqa, the former de-facto capital of Islamic State, after a convoy of fighters from the terror group and their families were allowed to leave the city.

"The battle will continue until the whole city is clean," SDF said in a statement, according to Reuters. SDF spokesman Talal Selo said that "no more than 200-300" foreign militants remained to fight on in the city after the convoy left.

"This is the final battle."
