Over 160 civilians to leave besieged Shiite towns in new deal with Yarmouk Camp rebels
2018-02-21
[ALMASDARNEWS] More than 160 civilians in the towns of al-Fou’aa and Kafraya will be transported from this besieged enclave to a government-held area, a military source told al-Masdar News this afternoon.

According to the military source, a deal was made between the government and Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham
that would allow the latter to transport their fighters and families from the Yarmouk Camp to the Idlib Governorate.

In exchange for safe passage, HTS will allow 160 civilians from Kafraya and al-Fou’aa to leave this besieged enclave in Idlib.

This deal comes just 48 hours after HTS lost most of the Yarmouk Camp District to the so-called Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're 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 the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS).

The deal will be facilitated by the Syrian Red Islamic Thingy Society.
