Deir Ezzor province: On Friday, ISIS members carried out an operation, capturing two members of the 4th Division from a security checkpoint on the highway near Dweir village, east of Deir Ezzor. The two members were taken to an unknown destination.

On October 28, SOHR sources reported that gunmen on motorcycles, believed to be of ISIS cells, attacked the headquarters of the military intelligence service in Al-Bokamal city centre in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor. The attack, which experienced the use of grenades and machineguns, lasted for nearly 15 minutes and left a guard of the headquarters, a regime soldier from Tartus city, dead. Meanwhile, regime forces cordoned off the attacked headquarters after the attack and prevented motorcycle riders from entering, leaving and roaming Al-Bokamal city.
