After two years, the Syrian town is finally free from ISIS and its hardline doctrine

For
supporters of the Islamic State watching the offensive in Manbij that
freed the Syrian city from its grip, nothing irked them more than the
sight of the once captive female population tearing off and burning their niqabs, the
black, head-to-toe covering worn by the most conservative Muslim women.
Not the images of men cutting off their mandatory beards, or the
victorious fighters (men and women) being welcomed with open arms into the city after two years of life under ISIS.
Users on ISIS forums circulated the images of the disrobing women with declarations that ISIS “should exterminate these whores,” Vocativ has found. Others on the sites wrote “these are some of the whores you find in every city in the world, even in Saudi Arabia.”
The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) announced over the weekend a full liberation of the strategic city after more than two months of battle. Nearly 100,000 civilians were displaced in the fighting and more than 400 were killed. The city is located 25 miles south of the Syrian-Turkish border and is considered a key hub for ISIS supply routes for weapons and foreign fighters.
Most of the anger from ISIS supporters on the group’s forum and on Telegram was directed at the women, who were also pictured smoking cigarettes. In areas under its control the terror group has imposed a strict dress code for both women and men in its territories, and banned the selling, buying or consumption of cigarettes.
