President Trump celebrated the recapture of the Islamic State's last major stronghold Saturday as a "critical breakthrough" in the campaign against the terrorist group.

"With the liberation of ISIS's capital and the vast majority of its territory, the end of the ISIS caliphate is in sight," the president said in a White House statement.

Trump acknowledged that the U.S. has more work to do in Syria. "We will soon transition into a new phase in which we will support local security forces, de-escalate violence across Syria, and advance the conditions for lasting peace, so that the terrorists cannot return to threaten our collective security again," he said. "Together, with our allies and partners, we will support diplomatic negotiations that end the violence, allow refugees to return safely home, and yield a political transition that honors the will of the Syrian people."
