Deir ez-Zor: Unknown assailants target government forces

[NPASyria] On Friday, one soldier of Syrian government forces was killed and another was injured in an armed attack that targeted their post in a town east of Deir ez-Zor Government, eastern Syria.

A military source of the government forces in the town of Abu Kamal, in the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor, said that two assailants, riding a cycle of violence, targeted a military post of the government forces near al-Tayara roundabout, at the entrance of the town.

The attack resulted in the killing of one soldier and the injury of another, causing military alert of the government forces, trying to pursue the attackers.

The Syrian Desert covers nearly half of the area of Syria and is distributed over the governorates of Deir ez-Zor, Raqqa, Aleppo, Homs, Hama, Rif Dimashq, Suwayda, and Palmyra.

Iranian-backed militias and government forces control large areas of the Syrian Desert and the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor, which constitutes a source of concern as it witnesses intensive operations by the Islamic State

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) sleeper cells.
