Since
militant group ISIS claimed to have established an Islamic caliphate,
the city of Raqqa has become known as its fanatical capital.
But
reports from groups inside the city say there is growing resentment
between the poor, who have been largely left to fend for themselves, and
Islamic fighters, who live a life of five-star luxury.
While
fighters have each been given a pay-rise and a roast lamb to feast on
for the festival of Eid al-Adha, the poor have been left to suffer as
food an fuel prices spike.
Happy holiday: Fighters have each been given a pay bonus and lamb to
feast on during Eid al-Adha, while in Raqqa may are now dependent on a
few weathly benefactors who bankroll charities
