The fierce clashes which are accompanied by about 480 raids, shells and missiles stop the normal movement in the towns and the cities of the Eastern Ghouta and kill and injure more than 100 citizens
Life in the Eastern Ghouta is reversed with the military operations there, in which the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored the stop of the normal day life in the Eastern Ghouta since the noon of Tuesday, until now, because the intensive shelling by mortar, tanks and artillery shells and by missiles believed to be ground-to-ground as well as the raids by the warplanes, has never stopped, in which the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights is still monitoring the continuation of the intensive shelling and the violent combat operations, as the fierce clashes are still continuing between the regime forces and militiamen loyal to them against the fighters of Liwaa Fajr al-Umma of the Islamic Movement of Ahrar Al-Sham, in the Vehicle Department and its vicinity, in an attempt by the regime forces to restore the positions they lost after the fighters of the Islamic brigade took the control of points and quarters inside the Vehicle Department, and confirmed information about more casualties caused by these violent clashes, while the number of the raids carried out by the warplanes since yesterday and until now, has increased to 67 raids at least, in conjunction with the continuation of the intensive shelling on the area, in which the number of shells which fired by the regime forces since the noon of Tuesday until now, has increased to 297 shells, which targeted the clash areas in the vicinity of the Vehicle Department and areas in the nearby city of Harasta and town of Mdyra.
While the number of raids carried out by the warplanes since the noon of Tuesday which targeted Douma city which is the stronghold of Jaysh Al-Islam in the Eastern Ghouta, and Arbin city which is controlled by Al-Rahman Corps, has increased to 16 raids, while the number of artillery and rocket shells and missiles that are believed to be ground-to-ground which targeted the cities and the towns Douma, Masraba, Saqba, Hamouriyah, Arbin, Ashari Farms, areas near Mdyra, Hazza and Kafr Batna in the Eastern Ghouta, has increased to at least 96, which resulted in the death of more citizens and the injury of others with varying degrees of severity, thus, the number of casualties who were killed during the past 24 hours, has increased to 8 citizens at least, while the number of the wounded who were injured as a result of this intensive shelling accompanied the fierce clashes since the noon of Tuesday until today the 15th of November 2017, has increased to 94 citizens including citizen women.
