Hasakah: ISIS, PYD fighting makes Kurds' life difficult as displacements rise
[EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] Dozens of villages in the region of Jabal abdul-Aziz witnessed on Monday heavy displacement as the festivities between forces of the Democratic Union Party (PYD) and the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) have become too near, added to Arclight airstrikes of the US-led alliance.

Yasin al-Ma'eeshi told Zaman al-Wasl that people from dozens of villages in the Northern part of Jabal Abdul-Aziz tried to escape their villages, fearing of getting trapped in the middle of battles if festivities reached to their villages and repeating the scenario of Tal-Hamis when Kurds' and Sanadid militias placed in durance vile
Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit!
people and rob their houses.

Fear of siege was another reason pushed people to escape their villages although battles have not reached them yet, especially if the main road to Hasaka gets closed, the activist said.

Al-Ma'eeshi mentioned that people suffer of severely bad humanitarian condition, because of shortage of food, and no is aid available, as well as transportations' difficulties, which forced people to escape on foot through the steep rugged mountainous routes.

Moreover, dozens of men gathered at roads, begging by-passers to pick up their families and give them a lift.

The activist mentioned that siege and war's conditions have deepened suffering of people who already live in poverty and lack of medical care and healthy conditions, as no single doctor is available.

Local sources mentioned that PYD gangs have performed a convolution operation around the villages controlled by the Islamic State and attacked the far villages with the help of US-led alliance's air strikes on the Islamic State's bases in Jabal Abdul-Aziz region, Tal Shommar and Tal Nasri near Tal-Tamer.

Hawara agency, the PYD's news agency confirmed the convolution operation around all fronts of Ras al-Ain, Tal-Tamer and Hasaka to the village of Tal- masamir which is situated at the road of Tal-Tamer and town of Ghora in Jabal Abdul-Aziz, mentioning that all supply routes to 23 villages controlled by ISIS have been closed.

Fighters of PYD has failed on Sunday in forcing ISIS's fighters to withdraw from Tal-Tamer without fighting as they aimed to repeat the plan done two months ago in Tal-Brak, when the regime's forces attacked the village from Hasaka-Tal-Brak route, while Beshmega's forces advanced via Sinjar-Tal-Hamis, which forced ISIS's fighters to withdraw fearing of siege.
