After he prohibited the engagement within a “secular” army against an “atheist secular” party, the Egyptian Abu al-Yaqzan in west Aleppo leads the clashes and incitement to fight an Islamic Movement

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored the continuation of clashes between the major factions operating in the Syrian north; for the second day in a row, where the Syrian Observatory monitored clashes on the outskirts of Darat Azza town, which was controlled by Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham, which is considered the second largest towns in the western sector of Aleppo countryside, while reliable sources confirmed that Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham seek to expand its control at the expense of Nour al-Dien al-Zenki movement of the National Liberation Front, in the wake of military reinforcements brought by both parties to participate in the clashes that have been taking place since the early hours of the morning of Wednesday, the 2nd of January 2019, while the Syrian Observatory monitoring Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham controlling Darat Azza and al-al-Hbata and Mkilbis and parts of al-Saadia area, amid attempts to enforce their control in these areas, in which they are sweeping and arresting residents of the area’s residents.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored the fall of more casualties, where it rose to 19 at least, the number of casualties of Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham, also it rose to 15, the number of killed members of Nour al-Dien Zenki movement, while the Syrian Observatory documented the death of 5 civilians including a nurse and 2 children -and information about a sixth casualties-, in the clashes that still taking place in the western sector of Aleppo countryside, while the clashes between the Nour al-Dien Zenki movement of the National Liberation Front against Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham; have caused the injury and captured of large number of fighters of both parties, and the death toll is expected to rise because there are some people in critical situation.

While the Syrian Observatory monitored the presence of Abu al-Yaqzan al-Masri -the “Jihadi” leader of Egyptian nationality- in the forefront of the combat operations against the Nour al-Dien al-Zenki movement, where he participated his fighters in the attack and incited them to fight, days after his “prohibition” to participate alongside the Turks in the fight against the Kurdish forces in Manbij and east of Euphrates, where the “jihadi” Abu al-Yaqzan said:

“A battle between a secular army and a secular atheist party, is a battle in a cycle of long conflict between Turkish nationalists and Kurdish nationalists, where Islam has share of it, and the word of God has no place in it, a battle that comes in the context of international understandings, which began with the normalization of relations with Assad regime, through Bashir’s visit, and the statements by Oglu that if Bashar came through democratic and fair elections, then, everyone should deal with him, the participation in this battle is haram according to the Sharia”

The Syrian Observatory published in early October 2018, that the sermon of the Egyptian commander in Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham, who is one of the commanders of the internal fighting against the rest Islamic and rebel factions in Idlib, says:

“Those who do not agree with the Sochi agreement, why do not they carry out any actions against the apostate regime?, even just a qualitative action behind the enemy lines in its barracks, where it imposed “red lines” claiming that it will never let Idlib pass into the destiny of corruption as it happened in the areas of the Euphrates Shield, and the Olive Branch, so why it welcomes the Turkish army, and why it gives it (the Turkish army) the opportunity to be present in Idlib?! and to raise the flags of the secular government?!, and who continuously says that Jihad is (red lines), why it shuts up the mouths of those who provoke against the infidel regime and its allies and wants to keep them silent?!, never be fooled by the lie of “red lines”, ((And if an entry were made upon them from the outlying parts of it, then they were asked to wage war, they would certainly have done it, and they would not have stayed in it but a little while)), “I have delivered my message…and ALLah is witness on me…as I may not meet you again after this sermon””.

The Syrian Observatory published days ago, that the Egyptian Jihadist, Abu al-Yaqzan al-Masri, is working on provoking the jihadist factions which reject the Russian – Turkish agreement, which came after meeting between Erdogan and Putin on Monday the 17th of September 2018, and which provides for establishing a demilitarized zone, and the sources informed the Syrian Observatory that Abu al-Yaqzan who leads Al-Asa’ib Al-Hamra’ (the Red Headbands), which are one of the sections of the Elite Forces in Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham, and they are characterized by putting on red headbands, became the first and main provoker against this agreement, where al-Masri is working on provoking the factions during his meetings with the leaders of the “jihadist” factions in the Syrian North, not to hand over their weapons and to fight “al-Nusayri and infidel Russians”, where several meetings were conducted during gatherings between al-Masri and the “Emirs and leaders” of the “jihadist” factions, it is noteworthy that Abu al-Yaqzan is the leader of the groups of Al-Asa’ib Al-Hamra’ which are one of the sections of the Elite Forces in Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham, and they are characterized by putting on red headbands, and they are led by prominent commanders in Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham one of whom is Abu al-Yaqzan al-Masri, who supervises a training camp of the forces of Al-Asa’ib Al-Hamra’, and they are the main groups which took part in the fighting against Nour al-Din al-Zenki Movement in the western countryside of Aleppo, in the first third of 2018, in which Abu al-Yaqzan was a direct and prominent opponent of the repel factions with Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham, while the SOHR published on the 22nd of August 2018, that Abu al-Yaqzan al-Masri and another leader, intersected sources confirmed that he is the leader of the Desert Sector in Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham, were subjected to shooting by unidentified gunmen in the southern countryside of Aleppo, and the assassination attempt injured one of them at least, and the Syrian Observatory also published on the 20th of July 2018, that it monitored the Egyptian leader Abu al-Yaqzan; the Egyptian leader in Hayyaat Tahrir al-Sham coming out and walking among the buses that are carrying the displaced people of al-Fu’ah and Kafriya, after they left al-Fu’ah and Kafriya and before they enter regime forces’-controlled areas, where Abu al-Yaqzan said: “where are the planes of Putin and the tanks of Hezbollah, where are the fighters of the al-Nujabaa movement, you are getting out of Idlib humiliated, you have no standing in Idlib oh Rawafid, oh time write, put your face in the mud because Bashar the dog and Putin couldn’t break the siege off you, 9 months of battles in al-Eis hill and in these hills until we repel you, and this is your status followers of Bashar the dog and Putin the dog, their status for them is rusted buses, and their hearts have been taken out thanks to God, Putin tried, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards tried, the Lebanese Hezbollah tried, and the army of the dog Bashar tried to break the siege of these, but they couldn’t, were the mujahideen repelled them in battles lasted 9 months”.

And the SOHR obtained a copy of a video months ago, showing a commander in Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham, called “Abu Al-Yaqazan Al-Masri”, a commander of the rebel attack of Tahrir Al-Sham, while he was delivering a speech to a group of fighters of the Hayyaat during the fighting  and saying that “O, People of Al-Sham, Allah has honored you to witness the fighting against the Americans, the Russians, the apostates of Bashar Army, those who spread corruption in the lands, the Khawarij, and the corrupts. The end is near and the ranks are becoming clear, and the fighting will continue until this area turns back to a battlefield against the infidels. Noor Al-Din Al-Zenki Movement didn’t open a new battlefront and it sent 40 fighters to a position in Skaik area, but they withdrew after 10 days. The weapons were obtained to be used in Jihad and kept stored for a year and will come out to be used in Jihad, tanks, tracked vehicles, warehouses of Ahrar Al-Sham became under our control and the Jihad in the Levant is a faith, don’t lose it”.
