Raqa and Mosul are the last major cities in Syria and Iraq under the jihadists' control.
Syrian cities such as Aleppo, Raqa, Homs and others also need extensive reconstruction.
Raqa represents the core of the Islamic State and they are unlikely to leave without a fight.
The coalition estimates that around 2,500 IS jihadists are defending Raqa.
SDF forces broke into Raqa in June after months of fighting to surround the city.
The Pentagon insists the SDF are the only fighting force currently on the ground capable of seizing Raqa.
Everything is finished in Raqa, our forces have taken full control of Raqa,” SDF spokesman Talal Sello told AFP.
The fighting, which has been especially fierce in the past four or five days, could lead to IS group being expelled from the area and pushed eastwards into Raqa province," Abdel Rahman said.
The Observatory said clashes andair strikes in Raqa had killed 311 IS jihadists and 106 SDF militiamen since June 6.
The ISIS branch in Raqa published photographs on jihadist websites purporting to show its fighters holding the captured pilot, with a caption identifying him as Jordanian and giving his name.
Tens of thousands of civilians are believed to be trapped inside Raqa, with warnings that the jihadists are using them as human shields.
The military operations in Raqa have finished, but there are clearing operations now under way to uncover any sleeper cells there might be and remove mines,” he said.
Arab and Kurdish fighters from the Syrian Democratic Forces broke into Raqa on June 6 after a months-long operation to encircle the northern city.
Everything is finished in Raqa, our forces have taken full control of Raqa," the alliance's spokesman Talal Sello told AFP.
With US backing, the YPG and the broader Syrian Democratic Forces(SDF) have captured swathes of territory from IS,including the grand prize of Raqa, the jihadists' de facto Syrian capital.
President Bashar al-Assad on Thursday said Raqa is not a priority target for his forces, saying his goal is to retake"every inch" of Syrian territory.
We will witness in the near future the advance of government and popular forces in Syria and east of the Euphrates,and the liberation of Raqa city,” he said in televised comments on a visit to Beirut.
Another 250 civilians,including 53 children, were killed in Raqa province, where U.S.-backed forces are trying to oust IS jihadists from their bastion Raqa city.
One of them was a project called Strike Trackers,which employed digital volunteers from 124 countries to identify each one of the 11,000 destroyed buildings in Raqa by analysing more than two million frames of satellite imagery.
Two years after the start of Syria's civil war in 2011, Raqa was the first provincial capital to fall to rebels, among them the Al-Nusra Front, Al-Qaeda's then-affiliate in the country.
Since the end of the nine-month operation to retake Mosul- the largest urban battle since World War II- andthe assault to wrest back Raqa that ended in October, the scale of the fighting has tailed off.
Velayati on Friday said Syrian army forces would soon advance to take Raqa city from the SDF and accused the United States of seeking to divide Syria by stationing its forces east of the Euphrates.
The former defence secretary asserts that effective operations against IS anda specific battle plan, which Carter claims US and allied forces still follow(the two“red arrows” pointing toward Mosul and Raqa), took shape only after his appointment in February 2015.
Amnesty also criticised the extensive use of artillery in the battle of Raqa, which one US military official boasted was the US's highest since the Vietnam war.
We declare today the start of the great battle to liberate the city of Raqa, the so-called capital of terrorism and terrorists," SDF spokesman Talal Sello told reporters in the village of Hazima, north of the city.
The Jihadist group lost its two main hubs, Mosul in Iraq and Raqa in Syria, earlier this year and is now only clinging to the dregs of a“caliphate” that spanned territory the size of Britain three years ago.
