FUNERAL NOTICES SARAH EL DEEB Associated Press BAGHOUZ, Syria As defeat looms, militants of the Islamic State group have remained organized and ruthless to their last breath. Keeping institutions func- tioning in their last shred of territory in Syria, they have continued benefits like food and money to supporters while their religious police and fighters still impose their rule of fear and brutality. Refusing to surrender, the militants have tried to squeeze out any last possi- ble gain. Over the past weeks, they secured the evacuation of more than 10,000 of their exhausted and wounded followers, looking to ensure long-term survival and con- tinued conflict. The militants many of them foreigners, including Iraqis and Central Asians, along with some Syrian fighters are now fighting their final battle, holed up in tunnels and caves inside Baghouz, the last village they control.

Since Friday, they have put up desperate resis- tance to renewed pounding by the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces aiming to take the tiny pocket on the Euphrates River near the Iraqi border. Around two dozen evac- uees described the final days to The Associated Press. They spoke of how once powerful institu- tions that administered the provinces of the so-called withstood the pressure as fighters focused on maintaining control. All those who spoke with the AP asked to keep their identity concealed, fearing repri- sals from IS or punishment for their connections to the group. The evacuees, most of them relatives of IS mem- bers, include shattered families that lost loved ones and wounded, exhausted and hungry men, women and children but some remain die-hard believers, angry and broken, and po- tential seeds for an already burgeoning insurgency in a country whose social fabric is in shreds.

IS militants remain organized.
