Syria Monitoring Group has said that Islamic State militants have seized the last Syrian government controlled border crossing between Syria and Iraq.
Government forces withdrew from Al-Tanf crossing known as Al-Waleed in Iraq as Islamic State advanced.
Syria also recently lost the ancient city of Palmyra to Islamic State.
UK based SOHR has said that currently IS controls about 95,000 sq KM of Syria which is 50 percent of the country's entire territory.
