ISIS kills four pro-regime soldiers in Raqqa: Monitor
[Rudaw] At least four pro-regime soldiers were killed on Wednesday in a desert attack by 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS) cells in northern Raqqa province, a war monitor reported, amid fears of a resurgence of the terror group. "Armed men from ISIS launched a surprise attack with light and medium weapons in the deep of the Syrian desert, targeting military points of the National Defense Forces [NDF] ... and killing four members of the militia," said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britannia-based war monitor. ISIS attacks have been on the rise in Syria, particularly in the vast expanses of its eastern and northern deserts where the terror group launches surprise attacks amid a security vacuum. On Monday, ISIS killed 11 unsuspecting truffle hunters in the Raqqa desert, days after five people, including NDF fighters, were killed in an ISIS attack in the same area while hunting for truffles. The NDF is a pro-government militia that has fought alongside Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneckal-Assad Terror of Aleppo ... since the outbreak of the Syrian civil war.
