As the Islamic State group defended its last scrap of territory against Kurdish-led forces in eastern Syria, a spokesman has urged followers to attack them elsewhere in the war-torn country.

An IS spokesman, in an audio recording posted on Telegram Monday, called for action from the group's supporters in areas held by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces.

"Avenge the blood of your brothers and sisters... Set up the (explosive) devices, deploy the snipers," said the spokesman, named as Abi Hassan al-Mujahir.
