| [Rudaw] The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) said on Friday that Islamic State (ISIS) militants carried out three attacks on its forces in eastern Syria’s Deir ez-Zor province. One SDF member was killed and another was injured. “The terrorist organization ‘ISIS’ continues its desperate attempts to revive its crumbling organization by carrying out treacherous and cowardly terrorist operations against our forces,” the SDF said in a statement. An ISIS cell attacked a military vehicle belonging to the SDF in the town of al-Busayrah, killing one SDF fighter and injuring another. “Our forces responded to the source of the attack, where the terrorist cell was fortified somewhere in the area. Clashes took place between the terrorist cell members and our forces, and they managed to flee from the area. Our forces began search and sweep operations in the area looking for the terrorists,” the SDF said. Two other attacks targeted an SDF military checkpoint in Dhiban and SDF-affiliated Internal Security Forces (Asayish) between the towns of al-Shahil and al-Busayrah. The SDF statement comes hours after the US army announced the killing of a senior ISIS leader and two of his sons on the other side of the country, in the northern province of Aleppo. |
