Renewed fighting in areas in Yarmouk Basin in the western countryside of Daraa

Daraa Province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights: clashes broke out after midnight between ISIS-affiliate Jaysh Khalid Ibn Al-Walid on one hand and the rebel and Islamic factions on the other in the areas of Jeleen and Kharbet Kawkab and the village of Al-Jabaliyah, west of Taseel in the western countryside of Daraa. Casualties were reported at both sides. Clashes were accompanied by shelling by the factions on positions of Jaysh Khalid Ibn Al-Walid in the area. One of the fighters of the Islamic factions died of injuries sustained during clashes with Jaysh Khalid Ibn Al-Walid in the western countryside of Daraa two days ago. That fighter turned to be the son of the commander of Ahrar Nawa Division. In addition, unknown gunmen tried to assassinate a doctor last night on the road connecting the towns of Saida and the western Al-Ghariyah by means of shooting.
