The news comes as President Barack Obama said today that the US would send up to 250 more special forces and other military personnel to Syria to help rebels fight ISIS.

Obama was in Germany for talks with Chancellor Angela Merkel, and both later met the British, French and Italian leaders to discuss the battle against IS in its self-declared caliphate across northern Syria and Iraq.

In a speech in the German city of Hanover, Obama hailed NATO partners' progress so far in pushing back IS, which he called 'the most urgent threat to our nations'.

'A small number of American special operations forces are already on the ground in Syria and their expertise has been critical as local forces have driven ISIL out of key areas,' he said, using an alternative acronym for the militant group.

'So, given the success, I have approved the deployment of up to 250 additional US personnel in Syria, including special forces, to keep up this momentum.'

The US forces will not lead the fight on the ground but provide training and advice to local forces against IS, he said.

'These terrorists will learn the same lessons that others before them have, which is: your hatred is no match for our nations, united in defence of our way of life,' said Obama.

Syrian opposition group the High Negotiations Committee (HNC) said boosting the US military presence to about 300 would be 'a good step' and help 'rid our country of this scourge'. 

'But Syria will not be free of terrorism until we see the end of the Assad regime's reign of terror,' added HNC spokesman Salem Al Meslet.
