Two separate incidents | Young man and woman kil-led by mistake in Deir Ezzor

Deir Ezzor province: A young man killed his elder mother by mistake, while celebrating her return from the capital Damascus after receiving medication, on Al-Makif road in Abo Hamam town eastern of Deir Ezzor, where she was taken to the hospital before dying.

On the other hand, a young man was shot dead by a stray bullet fired from his cousin, after they tried to kill another person for revenge, in Zaiban town eastern of Deir Ezzor.

On December 17, family fighting broke out between cousins of Al-Akidat tribe in Hawaij Dhiban town in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) due to an old vendetta that was renewed, killing one person.

It comes in light of chaos, arms proliferation and the failure to enact deterrent laws banning arms use.
