For Rawad Mafdi, his journalism is a weapon to fight the evils of Daesh.

Through his work, Rawad sheds light on one of the darkest ideologies facing the world today, helping turn people against Daesh. A free press keeps us all safe. #DefendMediaFreedom

Foreign Secretary statement on the fall of Daesh https://t.co/4g63fd7muG

[The Global Coalition @coalition]

Daesh has lost the remaining territory it held in Syria. It has failed to achieve its primary objective (1/6)

[UK Prime Minister @10DowningStreet]

“The liberation of the last Daesh-held territory wouldn’t have been possible without the immense courage of UK military and our allies. We will continue to do what is necessary to protect the British people, our Allies and partners from the threat Daesh poses.” – PM @Theresa_May

[Sir Jeremy Hunt MP @Jeremy_Hunt]

Today’s liberation of Daesh’s last territory in Syria is a historic achievement. But the fight is NOT over. We remain resolute in our commitment to tackle the real threat Daesh & its poisonous ideology poses to people in Iraq, Syria & around the world

[Counter Terrorism Policing @TerrorismPolice]

Head of UK Counter Terrorism Policing, Assistant Commissioner of Specialist Operations (ACSO) Neil Basu calls for "a sensible conversation about how to report terrorism in a way that doesn’t help terrorists."
