ISIS resurgence: members attack Al- Ataleh station near Koniko gas field, and International Coalition forces target them

SOHR activists say that Islamic State members launched this evening an attack on Al-Ataleh station, north-east of Deir ez-Zor city. The International Coalition forces stationed in Koniko gas field and al-Jafra field fired light bombs into the sky, and targeted the attackers with heavy artillery. No casualties have been reported yet.

On April 14, SOHR sources say that SDF’s public security forces arrested ten people in the town of Al-Baguz for “dealing” with sleeper cells of the Islamic State, including an emir in Al-Baguz town in eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zour. Explosive rounds used for assassinations were found in arrested people’s possession.
