Fox News declared Thursday the Islamic State caliphate has fallen, one day after President Trump said the terrorist organization would be wiped out overnight.

“The caliphate has crumbled, and the final offensive is over. While the official announcement hasn’t yet been made – Fox News has been told that this village, the last ISIS stronghold, is liberated,” reported foreign affairs correspondent Benjamin Hall, who said Fox News was present for the five days of fighting and noted troops were pulling down ISIS flags in Baghouz, Syria.
