Joint military operation | SDF and coalition ki-ll two suspects in Al-Zer village east of Deir Ezzor

Deir Ezzor province: “International Coalition” and SDF special forces raided a house where two persons were holding up in Al-Zer village in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor in the early hours of Sunday morning.

It is unknown whether the two men are ISIS members or not.

According to Syrian Observatory activists, upon arrival at the house, the two men refused to surrender. The helicopters of the International Coalition Forces targeted the house with heavy machine guns, killing two persons, one of whom was unknown.

 

Yesterday, clashes erupted with machineguns between SDF members stationed at the bank of Euphrates River in Al-Shahil town on one hand and the regime’s 4th Division on the other hand in Qobros town in eastern Deir Ezzor countryside.

According to reliable SOHR sources, the clashes erupted because a member of the 4th Division consumed drugs and opened fire, leading to clashes among both sides. However, no casualties have been reported yet.

The river crossings in Deir Ezzor have witnessed clashes between SDF members and smugglers from time to time due to disputes over fuel smuggling.
