| [IsraelTimes] A boom-mobileing in eastern Syria on Friday killed at least 18 people including 11 members of a U.S.-backed force that has fought the 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group, a war monitor said. "A boom-mobile went off in front of the Syrian Democratic Forces' base in al-Bsayra town in the eastern Deir Ezzor countryside," said Rami Abdel Rahman, head of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. It killed "a commander and ten other personnel, as well as seven civilians including three children," he said.
In Deir Ezzor province, the jihadists have been pushed back by two separate offensives: one by the SDF along the eastern bank of the Euphrates River, and another by Syrian regime forces on the western bank. Despite its losses, IS still maintains a presence in villages in the Deir Ezzor’s east. In May, the SDF announced the final stage of its battle to expel IS from its last desert holdouts in eastern Syria. | |
