Arab tribal uprising in Raqqa sees top US-backed forces intelligence officer assassinated
[ALMASDARNEWS] The recent uprising of al-Bukhamiss rustics from the Syrian Euphrates town of al-Mansura in southern Raqqa province has now seen a US-backed forces intelligence officer assassinated.According to reports by EMN News, Saleh al-Muhimd, an intelligence officer within the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, was bumped off in the last 24 hours by unknown assailants near al-Mansura. EMN News has released footage which reportedly shows the corpse of Saleh al-Muhimd after it was discovered. al-Masdar News cannot verify the legitimacy of the video ‐ neither in terms of who recorded it nor what it purports to show. Several days ago, al-Bukhamiss rustics set fire to tires and blocked checkpoint areas controlled by US-backed forces in the town of al-Mansura; some reports said the rustics were armed, other sources claimed they were demonstrating peacefully only to be fired upon by US-backed forces.
