ISWNews Analysis Group: The opening of the AlBukamal-AlQaim border crossing is still delayed and no exact date has been set. The opening was stopped after Israeli air strikes on the area.
On November 3, the Iraqi Army and the Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) started a military operation to retake the ISIS-held border town of al-Qaim located on the highway between the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, and the recently liberated Syrian city of Deir Ezzor.
The Iraqi Armed Forces resumed their offensive to liberate the Syrian border, today, liberating new areas inside the Al-Anbar Governorate.
