Airstrikes against ISIS-controlled oil refineries in Syria

“The U.S. and some of its Arab coalition partners have conducted another round of airstrikes in Syria, hitting oil refineries that have fallen into the hands of Islamic State militants, who officials say are funding themselves with the petroleum revenues.

The Pentagon says 13 airstrikes hit a dozen "modular" oil refineries in eastern Syria. The refineries are thought to produce $2 million worth of refined petroleum each day for the self-declared Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL.” 

Editor's comment:

The question is: where was ISIS marketing its oil products? and haven't members of  'the international coalition' known about oil's route and marketing?

Couple of days ago, the Turkish government succeeded to release Turkish hostages by ISIS. All of them returned home safe. So, is there a business partnership between the Turkish intelligence and ISIS?
