...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed...terrorist group launched a surprise attack on them in Syria’s eastern province of Dayr al-Zawr near the border with Iraq.
The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Saturday that ISIS snuffies had dispatched a group of bombers as part of a counter-attack against SDF myrmidons, killing at least 60 and wounding more than 100 of them overnight.
ISIS, in a statement published on the Telegram messaging application, said it had attacked the village of al-Sousa late on Friday, and detonated a boom-mobile near the village of al-Bagouz further south.
On September 15, the SDF said its fighters had stormed Bagouz and were close to the center of the village.
The forces added that they planned to open another front in Sousa area along the Euphrates River to build up pressure on the bad boys.
The development came only a day after at least 20 SDF gunnies were killed in a ISIS ambush around the town of Hajin in Dayr al-Zawr province.
