UPDATE: Turns out, there were foreign fighters in there like we earlier expected. Heck, there was even a Chechen.

That is bad news. Because the Chechens are the most effective fighting force within the ISIS. The recent setbacks suffered by the ISIS in Syria can be directly attributed to the death of high ranking Chechen commanders, such as Abu Omar al-Shishani. They have decades of experience fighting against the Russian army.
