ISIS reemerges in east Hama after 2017 defeat by Syrian Army
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS/ISIS/IS/ISIS) has reemerged in eastern Hama after their defeat at the hands of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and their allies.

According to reports from the Hama Governorate, a fierce battle broke out on Sunday morning when a group of Islamic State gunnies opened fire on a Syrian military patrol inside the village of al-’Ayyour.

The reports said the Syrian military patrol was acting on information about an Islamic State security cell in al-’Ayyour when the gunnies attacked their convoy.

"When the patrol arrived at the outskirts of the village, we came under heavy fire from some button men stationed at the hills surrounding the village. Violent festivities then took place between the patrol and the button men, resulting in a number of dead and injured among the button men and the wounding of four members of the patrol," a field news hound told Sputnik Arabic.

The news hound pointed out that a Syrian Army force and the accompanying troops stationed near the village of al-’Ayyour rushed to the scene of the festivities due to the heavy fire, and supported the patrol elements, which at the same time received air support from Syrian warplanes.

The source confirmed that the button men belonged to the Islamic State, likely to have arrived in the region a short time ago through the Hama desert that links al-Sukhnah region of eastern Homs.

The Islamic State bully boyz were eliminated as a result of the festivities; however, there are fears that more gunnies are now in this region of the governorate.
