2021-08-16
[NPASYRIA] On Sunday afternoon, unknown button men, who were riding a cycle of violence, opened fire on two civilians in the countryside of Deir ez-Zor, eastern Syria. A military source in the town of al-Shuhail, 40 km east of Deir ez-Zor, said that masked button men shot Abdullah al-Hassan and his cousin Muhammad al-Hassan near the al-Hasya complex in the town.

He added that the two civilians were maimed in the chest and are in a "critical" condition, according to what a doctor at al-Shuhail Hospital told them.

Local sources in the town said that the injured were civilians and did not belong to any military or political faction.

Recently, Deir ez-Zor countryside has witnessed an increase in liquidation attempts against members of the Syrian Democratic Forces, employees of the Autonomous Administration institutions, clan dignitaries and the civilian population, some of which have been adopted by 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).
