Deir Ezzor | Iranian-backed militias rejects regime’s resolution and clashes with “National Defence” members in Al-Bo Kamal

Deir Ezzor province: Violent clashes with heavy weapons erupted between Syrian members of the Iranian-backed Fatimyon militias on one hand and members of the regime-backed “National Defence” on the other hand in Al-Bo Kamal desert in eastern Deir Ezzor countryside, causing several casualties among both sides, amid military mobilization in the desert.

This comes after negotiations between the regime and dignitaries of tribes in the desert that lasted a week, to approve on opening the desert in 55 kilometres of depth for herding sheep and carry out agricultural work in the desert, while the Iranian-backed militias rejected the resolution.

On the same context, regime forces brought military reinforcements towards the desert, coming for Al-Bo Kamal city to support the “National Defence”, especially after the Iranian-backed militias led by “Al-Haj Hussein” refused to send reinforcements to support the regime.

Earlier today, Iranian-backed militias brought in ten “fuel tankers” loaded with oil from Al-Qaim border crossing linking the Syrian city of Al-Bokamal and the Iraqi city of Al-Qaim to protect the “Iranian Revolutionary Guard” towards Deir Ezzor military airport.
The fuel tankers were distributed via small tanks to Iranian-backed militia military positions and checkpoints in Deir Ezzor.
