Meanings of proclaim caliphate in английском

Islamic State is hoping to make its self- proclaimed caliphate self-sufficient.

In Syria, U.S.-backed rebels are moving quickly through the eastern city of Raqqa, another capital of the self- proclaimed caliphate.

Islamic State's self- proclaimed caliphate all but collapsed last month when U.S.-backed Iraqi forces recaptured Mosul after a brutal nine-month campaign.

Instead of urging supporters to travel to its self- proclaimed caliphate, it encouraged them to act locally using any means available.

Across the border in Syria, parts of which the IS says fall under its self- proclaimed caliphate, the picture was more complex.

The fall of Mosul effectively marked the end of the self- proclaimed caliphate Islamic State declared over parts of Syria and Iraq in 2014.

This rhetoric has only increased since a senior member of the group was reportedly executed in Aleppo for "questioning Baghdadi's self- proclaimed Caliphate".

Islamic State supporters said on Twitter that even if Baghdadi had been killed, his self- proclaimed caliphate straddling large areas of Iraq and Syria would survive.

Some 2,000 have managed to escape or have been smuggled out of Islamic State's self- proclaimed caliphate in Iraq and Syria, activists say.

The award-winning movement known as Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently (RBSS) have worked hard to counteract the stream of propaganda coming from the self- proclaimed caliphate.
