Aleppo Province – The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights: the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored the arrival of a group of buses within the last batch which is suspended and trapped in the oppositions’ controlled areas near the area of the crossing of Al-Eis – Al-Hadher, in the southern countryside of Aleppo, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights learned that the other group of buses is still located in the factions’ controlled areas, and the destiny of these buses is not known yet whether they will by allowed to be transported to the controlled areas of the regime forces or they will be kept until the regime authorities carry out the conditions of Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham of releasing other detainees instead of those who had their situations settled with the regime and remained within the regime’s controlled areas.

And the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights published hours ago, that Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham is continuing to detain hundreds of the residents of Kafriya and Al-Fu’ah, in the southern countryside of Aleppo, at Al-Eis Crossing, demanding that the regime forces have to provide alternates for hundreds of detainees who it released, of who refused to enter the factions’ controlled areas and preferred to remain in the regime forces’ controlled areas and “have their situations settled”, and the sources confirmed to the Syrian Observatory that 23 buses carrying about 900 persons, still stop in the controlled areas of Tahrir Al-Sham at Al-Eis Crossing, in anticipation for the regime’s response to this condition, or reaching an alternative solution through consultations that may take place in the area. In the same context, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights learned that tens of the factions’ fighters who impose their siege over the towns of Kafriya and Al-Fu’ah, entered the two towns, and started sweeping the both towns, while houses and property of the citizens were subjected to looting and thefts by members of the factions which entered the towns of Kafriya and Al-Fu’ah, which used to be inhabited by citizens of Shiite community in the north-eastern countryside of Idlib, where the SOHR documented the death of 3 fighters of Islamic factions who were killed in landmine explosions in the both towns, while there is anticipation for the resumption of the exit process of the gunmen and citizens of Kafriya and Al-Fu’ah towards the regime’s controlled areas in Aleppo, and the entry of the remaining detainees (or their alternates) to the controlled areas of the factions in Idlib.
