Affected by his wounds | Civilian kil-led in quarrels between civilians and Iranian-backed militias
Deir Ezzor province: SOHR activists have documented the death of a civilian affected by the wounds he sustained by stray bullets during quarrels between civilians and a group of the 47th Regiment, which is affiliated to the Iranian “Revolutionary Guards” militias, in Al-Bo Kamal city in Deir Ezzor countryside.
This comes in light of the ongoing security chaos and widespread of weapons.
On November 3, a local group known as “Al-Bokamal Revolutionaries” put fliers on the walls of the streets of Al-Bokamal city and countryside, east of Deir Ezzor, opposing the Iranian presence in the city and turning it into a post to transport weapons, ammunition, and missiles to Syria.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights obtained a copy of these fliers; here are highlights of the most important parts:
“We, Al-Bokamal revolutionaries, inform the occupiers and traitors, the Iranians and their affiliates, in Syria, particularly in Al-Bokamal which is still under predominance of Haj Askar and his affiliates, who continue to loot our resources, that we are watching you. Do not think that our silence indicates that we do not know what you are doing. We are people of this land, and we will never stay silent anymore against the practices of Iranians and their affiliates and militias.”
“Our border areas had been safe before you came. In your presence, the area have become the poorest and most dangerous area because of your suspicious acts practiced by Abu Rama Al-Iraqi, in full view of the so-called Haj Askar; both of them have turned the area into a corridor for transporting weapons to Syria and illicit drugs to Iraq. The Euphrates valley has become a precursor of the war and a road of death. Everyday, trucks carrying weapons, ammunition and missiles cross through Al-Qa’em crossing and other illegal and unofficial crossings. We watch you and monitor your movements. We know who you are, and we will never be satisfied or calm down before we force you to leave our areas.”
