US President Barack Obama is not considering military action against al-Raqqa, Syria, the self-declared capital of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), a US official tells The Jerusalem Post.
"At the moment, the options being considered are focused on Iraq," the official said. "Of course, that could always change."
The terrorist militia ravaging the sovereignty of Iraq is headquartered in Syria, where the group gained strength through the strife of the civil war there.
The US is now considering military strikes against the group, two years after pulling troops from the country after nine years of war.
