Militants show resistance in southern Damascus as regime forces step up attacks
2018-04-23
[EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] Pro-regime Paleostinian paramilitary group mourned three officers said they had been killed by former al-Qaeda group as the regime stepped up efforts to wipe out the insurgency's last foothold south of the capital.

The Militia of Fateh al-Intifada has engaged in fierce festivities with Tahrir al-Sham
and ISIS in the Paleostinian refugee camp of Yarmouk and al-Hajar al-Aswad district.

Tahrir al-Sham said it had killed more than 20 Paleostinian fighters loyal to Bashir al-Assad since the festivities erupted four days ago.

On Sunday, the regime warplanes carried out fresh air strikes on the southern neighborhoods of Damascus. Local activists said more than 200 raids were conducted since Thursday.

Thick clouds of smoke rose from the al-Hajar al-Aswad district as the sound of jets could be heard overhead in the live broadcasts from the area.

The area is part of an enclave just south of Damascus that includes Yarmouk camp and is controlled by Lion of Islam holy warriors from ISIS (ISIS) and the Nusra Front.

It is adjoined by a pocket held by other rebel groups fighting under the Free Syrian Army
... the more palatable version of the Syrian insurgency, heavily influenced by the Moslem Brüderbund...
