According to a military source in eastern Syria, the Syrian Army spotted the group of Islamic State snuffies as they were traveling northeast of al-Sukhnah in a bid to escape to Iraq before dawn the following day.

He would add that the Syrian Army has been high alert around al-Sukhnah these last few days as Islamic State snuffies have increased their activities in this desert region of eastern Homs.
