As U.S. leaves Syria, Kurds join Assad to fight a NATO ally

In the days since the announced withdrawal of U.S. troops from northern Syria, the country’s map is being redrawn.

As a result, an estimated 130,000 civilians have fled their homes, and imprisoned ISIS fighters have escaped. Nick Schifrin reports.
