Following US att*acks | Iranian militias use civilians as human shields in residential neighbourhoods

Deir Ezzor province: Members of the Iranian militias deployed in Deir Ezzor city and roamed the neighbourhoods of the city searching for houses for them among civilians, amid a state of panic and fear among civilians for them being used as human shields.

These movements followed the attacks committed by the “International Coalition” against the Iranian militias in Deir Ezzor recently.

It is worth noting that the “Iranian militias” are trying to hide during this period, by staying in houses in residential neighbourhoods in Deir Ezzor city in return of paying huge amounts of money to protect themselves from the “International Coalition.”
