United States President Barack Obama is set to reveal America's "game plan" for combating the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria in a speech on Wednesday, a report said.
The US President said that Washington would degrade the ISIS, shrink their territory and "defeat them," reported the BBC. However, he also added that the offensive is not going to be the equivalent of the Iraq war but will be a counter-terrorism campaign that the U.S. has been conducting for the past seven years.
Obama has been criticized in the past for failing to devise a plan to counter the ISIS in Iraq and Syria.
Meanwhile, the Arab League has also vowed to take all necessary steps against the militant group which has seized large swathes of territory in the two Gulf States.
The league has also lent its support to a Security Council resolution that was passed last month and called on member states to take appropriate steps to stop the flow of weapons and money to extremists in Iraq and Syria.
