[SHABELLENEWS] Two quarry workers were rubbed out Friday and one was missing in a suspected murderous Moslem attack in Kenya’s northern county of Mandera, a government official said.
The attack took place in the town of Elwak, Regional Coordinator Mohamud Saleh said. Workers had been asked to leave the site because l-Shabaab ... the personification of Somali state failure... fighters'>al-Shaboobs based in neighboring Somalia had been seen in the area a few days earlier, he said.
It was the third time quarry workers had been targeted by suspected bandidosgunnies in Mandera in the past two years. The majority of quarry workers in the region are not Moslem, according to officials.
Mandera is next to the Somali border and has been hardest hit in recent years by an al-Shabaab campaign to avenge Kenyan troop presence in Somalia since 2011.
Kenya’s troops are part of the African Union ...a union consisting of 53 African states, most run by dictators of one flavor or another. The only all-African state not in the AU is Morocco.

Mission in Somalia) forces fighting extremism in Somalia, U.S. military officials have said.
The troops’ arrival marks the first presence of American military forces in Somalia, other than a small unit of counterterrorism advisers, since March 1994 when the U.S. pulled out of the U.N. intervention operation in the war-torn state, five months after 18 U.S. special forces personnel were killed in a battle with Somali bully boyz that inspired the movie Black Hawk Down.

[SHABELLENEWS] At least six people were killed and nine others injured when rival clan militias clashed in central Somalia, residents and community elders said on Saturday.
The Death Eaters belonging to the Air and Duduble sub-clans started fighting early Saturday morning in Labi-Aano village, 45 km east of Dhuusamareeb. The fight is over a dispute and clan vendetta.
"So far we know that six people died in the hostilities between the clans and more than nine others were maimed," Mohammed Ali Ilmi, the governor of the Galgudud region told VOA’s Somali Service by phone. "Still the area is too tense. There might be further festivities as war preparations are underway in nearby villages," he said.
Hassan Ali Omar, an elder in the region, said the fighting was sparked by long-standing hostilities over land ownership and pasture.
"This fighting has repeated several times and it is over long-standing vendetta between the two sub-clans. We are sorry that it has resulted in deaths," Omar said.

[Libya Herald] Explosions in Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... ’s Abu Sleem, Salahedeen and Airport Road districts late this evening have heightened fears of a major battle between hardline, mainly Misratan brigades and local brigades, notably those under Ghneiwa al-Kikli, Haithem al-Tajouri, Hashem Bishr ...head of the Libya Ministry of Interior's now-disbanded Supreme Security Committee, which operated as a parallel security force to the army and the police, with a reputed 140,000 men under arms.. and Abdul Raouf Kara.
Following a reported meeting in Salahedeen earlier this week between Misratan hardliner brigades vowing to impose themselves on the capital, Tripoli has been rife with rumours that something was about to happen.
At the time of writing, there were no further details about the fighting, although there were reports that Ghneiwa’s headquarters in Abu Sleem had been attacked. Explosions there are said to be the work of a group calling itself Fakhr Libya ("Pride of Libya" ‐ فخر ليبيا). It is still unclear what exactly led to the kaboom, but one theory is that Ghneiwa’s munitions were targeted by saboteurs who had slipped into his headquarters.
The name is a play on that the former Libya Dawn ...aka Fajr Libya, the Islamist operation launched to counter that of General Khalifa Haftar (Operation Dignity). It is made up of the Libya Shield militia (Misrata and Moslem Brotherhood), Libya Revolutionaries Operations Room (Moslem Brotherhood), and Tripoli Brigade (close to Abdul Hakim Belhaj, head of Al-Watan party). Financing and moral support come from Turkey and Qatar... ("Fajr Libya" ‐ فجر ليبيا), the alliance of hardliners opposed to the House of Representatives and the Thinni government in Beida.

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] A new video from inside the restive al-Awamiya neighborhood showed a car carrying gunnies shooting at citizens and security officers.
Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... ’s Ministry of Interior said on Friday that gunnies targeted a development project in the neighborhood of al-Masoura in the eastern province of Qatif, where labor workers were targeted during the shoot-out.
Two people, including an infant, were killed and 10 others maimed after gunnies shot at workers at a development project in the eastern Qatif governorate and left the scene.
Ten people including six Saudi nationals were maimed in the attacks. The injured include a woman and two children, a Sudanese national, an Indian national who is in a critical condition, in addition to four coppers who suffered minor injuries.
Gunmen killed a Saudi child and a Pak man during an attack on workers at a building project in restive eastern Soddy Arabia on Wednesday, the interior ministry said on Friday.
The gunnies tried to stop redevelopment work in the old quarter of the town of Awamiya, where authorities say Shia Lions of Islam are hiding, said an interior ministry front man quoted by state news agency SPA.
"Workers were shot at by terrorist elements from the neighborhood to obstruct the project and protect abandoned houses used to ... kidnap citizens," said SPA.
The attack took place in Qatif, an oil-producing province home to a large Shia population that has witnessed protests for more rights in Saudi Arabia which is majority Sunni.
Authorities say the narrow streets of the old town, built during Ottoman rule more than 200 years ago, have become a hideout for Shia MoslemLions of Islam believed to be behind attacks on security forces in the region.

[Dhaka Tribune] Militant recruiter and terrorist financier Rizwan Haroon has reportedly gone missing after he slipped in through Shahjalal International Airport immigration last Thursday.
Rizwan, who is on the Home Ministry’s most wanted list, apparently entered the county unnoticed after arriving on-board an 8am Emirates flight from London.
Sources claimed that law enforcement agencies conducted drives immediately after the gaffe was detected but Rizwan had already gone underground.
The co-founder and managing director of Lakehead Grammar School, is being investigated for financing and patronising militancy in Bangladesh.
The school reportedly was a breeding ground for murderous Moslems and employed controversial holy warrior leaders as instructors since its founding.
The sources also said that an Education Ministry report sent to the Home Ministry on January 23 this year advocated legal action against Rizwan.
The insiders said that roughly 12 days later, the Home Ministry sent letters to the Armed Forces Division, Police Headquarters and the Education Ministry urging for required steps to be taken.
A bigwig, working in the Police Headquarters, said they have been notified of Rizwan’s entry and they were investigating the incident.
However, death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate... when Home Minister Assaduzzaman Khan Kamal was contacted from the Dhaka Tribune around 8pm Saturday, three days after it allegedly took place, he admitted that he was not notified of the incident until then.
But, Kamal was quick to assure that if any such incident took place, the Home Ministry would take prompt actions.
Rizwan, according to sources, had two Bangladeshi passports (BH0634137 and AE6016933) both of which expires near this year’s end.
In 2006, Rizwan co-founded Lakehead Grammar School (LGS) with Hizb-ut Tahrir Ameer Prof Dr Golam Moula.
He became radicalised during his PhD programme in United Kingdom through Jamatul Moslemin Ameer Abu Isa Al Rafai, a Jordanian who migrated to UK.
Rizwan, reportedly, organised activities of Jamatul Moslemin (JM) in Bangladesh since 2002 with pro al-Qaeda ideology and motivated mostly high class/intellectual community members for so-called Jihad.
Sources said he went to UK this year on January 27.

[Ynet] A Greek court has convicted two Swedish nationals of belonging to the Islamic State group, and sentenced them to 15 years imprisonment. The men's lawyer says they were also found guilty of arms possession—a pair of hunting knives—with the intent of supplying a terrorist group.

Imam accused in Denmark of calling for murder of Jews
11 May
[IsraelTimes] Denmark’s Jewish community has filed a complaint over an imam accused of calling for the murder of Jews in a case sparking political opprobrium, it emerged Thursday.
Imam Mundhir Abdallah preaches in the working class Copenhagen suburb of Norrebro at the Masjid Al-Faruq mosque, which media have previously linked to radical Islam. He stands accused of citing a hadith or Koranic narrative on March 31 calling for Muslims to rise up against Jews.
“Judgement Day will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them,” begins Abdallah’s address in footage on YouTube, according to a transcript of the original Arabic provided by US organisation the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
According to broadcaster DR, Omar al-Hussein, who was behind a series of shootings in Copenhagen in February 2015 which left two people dead, had visited the mosque the day before going on the rampage. The Dane of Palestinian origin had sworn allegiance to Islamic State and shot and killed one person at a cultural centre hosting a conference on freedom of expression, before killing a Jewish man outside a synagogue. Police later shot him dead after he fired on them in a third incident.
MP Lars Aslan Rasmussen of the opposition Social Democrat party told Kristeligt Dagblad that he would speak to justice minister Søren Pape Poulsen about the sermon.
“This could be either a breach of the racism paragraph or the imam law [hate preacher law, ed.], which has criminalised certain types of statements from religious preachers… It is very, very serious, and we cannot let imams talk to their congregations in this way,” Rasmussen said.
The imam, Mundhir Abdallah, is reported by the Politiken newspaper to be connected to the controversial Hizbut Tahrir ...an al-Qaeda recruiting organization banned in most countries. It calls for the reestablishment of the Caliphate... group.

The 36-year old had been living in Catania in Sicily, where Amri spent time in prison before moving to Germany and killing 12 people by driving a truck through the market last year.

[Daily Excelsior] Police today foiled a major attempt to revive militancy in Chenab Valley, which had been reduced to negligible during the past few years, by arresting five myrmidons, who had developed links in Pakistain as well as with Lashkar-e-Taiba ...the Army of the Pure, an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned, always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI... (LeT) commanders in the Kashmire valley.
They were instrumental in attack on Tanta (Kahara) police post under the jurisdiction of Gandoh cop shoppe in Doda district in which an SPO was killed and another injured seriously on the intervening night of May 7 and 8.
Addressing a presser here, IGP Jammu Zone Dr SD Singh Jamwal accompanied by DIG Doda-Ramban range Nissar Ahmad and SSP Doda Mohammad Shabir, said the LeT module had been trying to revive militancy in the Chenab valley.
A total of five persons including an SPO and a former Territorial Army personnel have been tossed in the calaboose Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit! , he added.
The module was working to revive militancy in the Doda- Kishtwar-Ramban region.
Jamwal said that the arrests were made by a Special Investigation Team (SIT) formed after the attack on a police post in Doda on May 8, in which one Special Police Officer (SPO) was killed and another injured. The SIT was headed by Additional SP Bhaderwah Shahzad Salaria.
Giving details, the IGP said that based on intelligence inputs
*Ring, ring* "Mahmoud the Weasel here. Listen carefully, I will say this only once. If you want to find some really bad miscreants, you will find them plotting mischief together in the potting shed at the bottom of the strawberry fields. Do not tell them I sent you."
the SIT had picked up some suspects and subsequently apprehended Abdul Rashid Harga alias Abdullah, a resident of Tanta in Doda district.
Rashid had been an active member of LeT between 2001 and 2008 and had later surrendered. He was again arrested in 2013 and was released on bail in 2016.
A busy man.
After sustained interrogation,
"OUCH! Stop doing that! I said I'll talk if you just stop doing that!"
Rashid confessed to his involvement in the (Doda) firing incident and disclosed the names of his two associates -- his younger brother Showket Ali and Akhtar Magrey of Tanta.
Following their interrogation,
"OUCH!"
"OUCH!"
four more persons -- Bashir Ahmed, who was earlier part of Territorial Army, his nephew and SPO Altaf Ahmed, Shafqat Hussain and Hafiz -- were arrested.
"OUCH!"
"OUCH!"
"OUCH!"
"OUCH!"
An AK-47 rifle and three magazines and ammunition have been recovered from them, the IGP said.
To be fair, the magazines and ammunition were all sadly dented, and the rifle had clearly never been cleaned. If this were Bangladesh, the newest RAB recruit would be set to cleaning, polishing, and hammering out dents until the sergeant was satisfied. But as it's Pakistan, the light tracery of rust over it all will only grow heavier with neglect.
He said that Rashid had been in contact with Bashir Ahmed of Bangraw-Gandoh, who was earlier working in the 139 Territorial Army Battalion in Thathri.
Bashir had asked his nephew Altaf Ahmed, who was working as an SPO in the police department in Doda district, to arrange a weapon.
The SPO had then stolen one AK-47 rifle and ammunition from the District Police Lines in January this year. A case in connection with the weapon theft was registered at Doda cop shoppe.
The IGP claimed that Rashid was in direct communication with his Pak handler, Mohammad Amin alias Khubeb alias Haroon alias Pinna of the LeT.
Goodness. Even his mother must be confused, though his wife, if he has one, may well be delighted.
He said that Rashid, Akhtar and Shokat, on the direction of Khubeb, had been enticing youths of Tanta area to join the militancy.
The police officer said that Rashid had been regularly conducting meetings in various areas of the Chenab valley and motivating former forces of Evil and those who had surrendered.
On the direction of Khubaib and commanders of Valley based myrmidon organization, mainly the Lashkar-e-Taiba, which was asking Harga to activate militancy in erstwhile Doda district. Abdul Rashid Harga alias Abdullah activated his newly recruited grid to keep vigil on the movement of security forces and police pickets in remote hilly areas of Gandoh belt and planned to attack the security forces.
The Jammu police chief said that on May 7, Abdullah conducted recce of the police picket Tanta and got the information of presence of only two to three men at the Post. He then directed his associates to reach in the forest area near the post.
On the intervening night of May 7-8, they attacked police picket Tanta (Kahara) district Doda in which 2 SPOs namely Mohammad Younus and Kikkar Singh were grievously injured.
Younis later succumbed to the injuries at GMCH Jammu. "After attacking the post accused tried to set ablaze the Police Post. However, there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened... due to quick reaction of the injured SPOs they fled from the spot taking the advantage of the darkness," said the IGP.
It was also found that Abdullah, Akhter and Shokat on the direction of Khubbeb alias Amin Butt were enticing the youths of Tanta area to join the militancy.
Abdullah on VOIP calls was also getting the young generation to speak to Khubbeb and other motivators of LeT outfits across the border for joining militancy.
The IGP, however, said that with the arrest of these accused, recovery of weapon and busting of LeT module, Tanta Police Post attack by the LeT has also been worked out by the SIT, which was headed by Additional SP Bhaderwah Shahzad Salaria and comprised SDPO Gandoh Sunny Gupta, Inspector Manjeet Singh and Inspector Tahir Yousaf.

Trailing Wife, I really really like your inline comments! :) Made for an enjoyable read!
[DAWN] Pakistain Army on Saturday issued a stern warning to India against any misadventure along the heavily militarised Line of Control (LoC) in Kashmire, which saw cross border shelling almost throughout the day, leaving at least 13 people maimed in different parts of Azad Jammu and Kashmire (AJK).
Among the injured were eight women and a toddler.
"The Indian army has been targeting innocent civilians on both sides of the LoC in recent past. Any misadventure by Indian army across the LoC will be a miscalculation, shall be responded with full force and could lead to unintended consequences," said the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The strongly worded message was delivered in the wake of Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa’s visit to the LoC in AJK’s Nakyal sector in Kotli district.
Local officials and ISPR said that five persons were maimed by Indian firing in Khuiratta and Charhoi sectors of Kotli district and the rest in Samahni and Baroh sectors of Bhimber district.
Terming the Indian firing as "unprovoked", the ISPR added that Pak troops are befittingly responding to the firing.
Civilian officials said that the total number of injured people stood at 13.

[Ynet] A 37-year-old police officer was moderately injured by a terrorist stabbing in the area of the Lions' Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem. The police said that the terrorist was shot and later pronounced dead. The terrorist, Mohammad Abdullah Salim al-Kasji, a 57-year-old Jordanian citizen, arrived in Israel a week ago via the Jordan River crossing in Beit Shean.
MDA reported that at 01:21pm, a man was stabbed near the Lions' Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem.
Upon reaching the scene, the paramedics found a 37-year-old police officer with stab wounds in his upper body. He was taken to Shaare Zedek Hospital in the city and was fully conscious. The police reported that the terrorist was neutralized at the scene, and was later pronounced dead.
According to an initial investigation, the terrorist was walking down Shalshelet Street in the Old City and noticed a policeman walking towards him. The terrorist rapidly approached him, pulled out two knives he had in his possession, charged him and stabbed him. The police reported that the officer responded with determination and professionalism while he was maimed, and managed to neutralize the assailant.
[Ynet] In a statement issued today, State Minister for Media Affairs, the government's front man, Mohammad al-Momani, said the Ministry of Foreign and Expatriates Affairs is following-up, through the Jordanian Embassy in Tel Aviv, on the killing of Jordanian citizen, Mohammad Abdullah Salim al-Kasji, to find out the details and circumstances of the incident.
"The Israeli government, as the occupying power, bears responsibility for the shooting and killing of a Jordanian citizen in the occupied East Jerusalem on Saturday," the government said.
The government condemned as "terrible" the crime committed against the Jordanian citizen and demanded Israel to reveal the full details of the crime.
What kind of model citizen wanders about a country not his own carrying two knives for the purpose of stabbing stray passers by, even if they are wearing the uniform of their country? The terrible crime was not committed against the Jordanian.
Al-Kasji has recently left the Kingdom through the Sheikh Hussein crossing, northern Jordan, via Israeli tourist visa and didn't return with the tourist group that he traveled with. He was shot by an Israeli police officer after attempting to stab the officer to death.
The officer suffered moderate stab wounds in his torso, and is currently hospitalized.

Jordan holds Israel responsible for killing Jordanian terrorist
IMO, the second* biggest mistake in Israel's history was saving the Hashemite regime from Palestinians in 1970. If we just stood aside, Jordan would be a "Palestinian" state today.
*The first was not ethnically cleansing Arabs in 1948 and repeating in 1967 - cause the concept of ethnical cleansing didn't exist then (just ask Sudetendeutsche).

I most certainly don't agree with that ethnically cleansing bit Grom. We've seen it. It is beyond horror. Islam, and the Paleos, don't really HAVE any set ethnicity to cleanse anyway even if you were inclined.
Now, taking off the kids gloves and leveling towns/cities against the combatant's/Scum I could get behind. Until we're ready to accept hundreds of thousands of dead Civilians caught in the crossfire, I don't think we'll ever get rid of the rot.

I repeat. The notion of "ethnic cleansing" is a modern invention used (solely) as a stick to beat their opponents* by Tranzi elites. In 1948, nobody would say a word.
For that matter, doesn't the Tranzi's beloved program for "Israeli-Palestinian Peace" implicitly includes ethnic cleansing of Jews from Judea & Samaria?
We've seen it. It is beyond horror.
We see it every day - just pay attention to newspapers. I don't notice particular horror - except when it done by people "we" don't like anyway.
* Ask all the Serbs who used to live in Kosovo. Or, Christians who used to live in Iraq. Or Russians who used to live in 'stans.

In those days there was no Palestinian identity, Charles, but there definitely was an Arab one, Muslim and Christian alike. And given that the Jews were ethnically cleansed from the Muslim world, including as far away as Pakistan, in the 1950s, it would have been fair to insist on a fuller exchange of populations, as happened in India/Pakistan. As it was, an unknown number of Jews were killed in the process, some 600,000-800,000 made it to Israel, and the rest scattered, mostly to Europe and North America. We had a nice little population of Persian Jews in Buffalo, NY when I was a girl, who'd moved there after finding Montreal (they all spoke French, too) entirely too cold.
[BenarNews] A top communist guerrilla leader wanted for a series of attacks in the southern Philippines has been arrested along with three others including a Christian bishop.
Rommel Salinas, identified as the secretary general of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) in Mindanao, was arrested by a joint police and military operation Thursday evening near the city of Ozamiz, about 750 miles of Manila. Also arrested were Bishop Carlo Morales of the local Iglesia Filipina Independiente, his wife and the driver of the van the group rode in. Authorities confiscated a hand grenade, mobile phones, battery packs, a city map and almost $2,000 from the four suspects.
Brig. Gen. Rolando Joselito Bautista said Salinas was the top-ranking commander of the communists' armed wing, the New People's Army, and was believed to be in charge of a range of terrorist activities in the region.
Salinas was allegedly "involved in numerous high-profile crimes" and a local court had issued at least five warrants for his arrest. Bautista said Salinas "was the most wanted NPA commander" in western Mindanao.
The arrest of Bishop Morales sparked outrage in his church, during which the clergy ordered its members to immediately travel to the regional police office to demand his freedom. The church also posted a photo of a handcuffed Bishop Morales on its social media page and said the four were not allowed to make phone calls to seek legal assistance.
The arrests came a day after four NPA militants were killed in separate clashes with troops also in the south Wednesday, some two weeks after the gunmen attacked three rubber manufacturing facilities in the southern city of Davao, killing a civilian.
Sultan Kudarat provincial police commander Raul Supiter said fighting broke out when NPA rebels attacked a Marine contingent patroling the area. A 30-minute firefight ensued, resulting in the death of two militants. Two other guerrillas were also killed in a clash in the city of Malaybalay.
[Philippine Star] The Philippine military pummeled Abu Sayyaf lairs in Basilan on Thursday, killing at least 20 militants in what was called a “shock and awe” airstrike by F-50 fighters followed by an artillery barrage. Troops also seized an Abu Sayyaf camp in Barangay Pamatsaken in the hinterlands of Sumisip, which was hastily abandoned by fleeing rebels under Furuji Indama.
President Duterte had earlier ordered the military to "shoot on sight" Abu Sayyaf militants amid travel warnings issued by the US, Britain, Canada and Australia about plots to kidnap foreigners and conduct bombings in Bohol, Cebu and Palawan.
Col. Juvymax Uy said special forces under initially penetrated the camp before dawn on Thursday, then assaulted the Abu Sayyaf rebels who were having breakfast. The soldiers breached the camp perimeter and inched closer to about 100 meters from the makeshift tents. A gun battle broke out as the troops took the militants by surprise.
FA-50 jets launched the shock and awe airstrike and delivered rounds of rocket bombs against the Abu Sayyaf position. The airstrikes were immediately followed with artillery and mortar fire, inflicting additional casualties to the rebels.
Bloodstains were found in the vicinity. Intelligence reports said there were about 20 Abu Sayyaf fatalities from the combined airstrikes and indirect fires.
The military recovered three live improvised explosive devices that were rigged around the camp as booby traps. One IED was accidentally triggered and exploded, injuring two soldiers.

This story is a few days old. I'll post a more recent follow-up article tomorrow.
[The Nation] About 50 people were hurt by a massive car bomb outside a department store in Thailand's Pattani province Tuesday afternoon that caused widespread damage. The bombers used a common militant tactic – triggering a small initial explosive inside the Big C department store, which sent shoppers running outside, before the second bomb concealed in a pickup parked at an entrance door was detonated.
The first bomb also seemed intended to distract authorities ahead of the second much bigger blast.
The attack took place at the store in Muang district at a time when the store was crowded with parents and children looking for school items including uniforms in preparation for the new semester. Among the dozens of people wounded by the bombs were store staff, at least one of whom was seriously injured, as well as many children.
Regional security spokesman Pramote Prom-in said the bombers were intent on mass killing. He said, "The bombers parked the pickup in front of the entrance of the store, clearly showing their intention of mass killing. However, the suspicious vehicle was spotted and people were evacuated from the area in time before the second explosion."
Initial reports from rescue workers said no one had been killed while 30 people, including store staff, were wounded. The number injured was later put at 50.
The first blast was caused by a large firecracker that diverted attention, allowing the bombers to move the pickup to the store entrance. He said the second bomb was hidden in a bag in the pickup.
Facebook user Montakanti Kasemsuk, who captured the second blast on Facebook Live, said she was about to leave the store when the first bomb exploded. She then stayed in the parking lot and began recording the incident. Her video initially showed people outside of the store in the Big C parking lot after the first blast. When the second bomb went off near her, her video clip captured a ball of fire before the video became shaky as she ran from the scene.
Aleppo (IraqiNews) Syrian government forces managed, on Saturday, to recapture Jirah (Jarrah) Military Airbase, in the eastern countryside of Aleppo, after two months of fierce battles with the Islamic State group, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).
Head of SOHR Ramy Abdel Rahman said, the Syrian government forces recaptured al-Jirah (Jarrah) Military Airbase, in the eastern countryside of Aleppo, after violent battles, while added that the majority of militants withdrew from the area.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Syrian government forces, backed by Russian forces, started an extensive assault in January 2017, and managed to drive out militants from more than 170 villages and cities.
In 7 January, Syrian government forces arrived in the outskirts of al-Jirah Military Airbase, and engaged in violent battles, accompanied by air strikes, with the terrorist group.
“The airbase suffered great material losses due to the violent air strikes,” Abdel Rahman explained.
Noteworthy, al-Jirah Airbase was captured by opposition fighters from Ahrar al-Sham and the Free Syrian Army on 12 February, then it fell under the Islamic State control in January 2014.
