Kurdish and Christian Forces battling ISIS for 150 hostages

On Wednesday in northeastern Syria Kurdish and Christian forces started battling with ISIS. According to activist, the ISIS extremist group abducted at least 150 people from Assyrian Christian villages. Assyrian Christians and Armenians, as well as many Arabs and Kurdish people inhabit the Hassakeh province, which has become the main battleground place in fighting ISIS. Many villages ran into conflict with ISIS and many NGO's including a Syrian Christian group reported 150 people missing, many of them women and elderly people. "We have verified at least 150 people who have been abducted from sources on the ground," said Bassam Ishak, President of the Syriac National Council of Syria. ISIS has not confirmed the abductions, but they have recently recorded video of themselves fighting in the exact area of where the abductions took place. The status of the 150 people missing is still unknown, but everyone knows the fate of a usual captive of ISIS. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and a Christian group called the Syriac Military Council said heavy clashes against ISIS militants in the area were continuing. Many of these groups are calling upon the U.S. for aide and help from the savages of ISIS. This threat is becoming more and more evident as time continues. The more the U.S. sits back and does not conduct any real military arsenal the more this barbaric group grows. This is not a JV team Mr. President.
