On Monday, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) defused an improvised explosive device (IED) that was planned to target a school in the town of Dhiban, 50 km east of Deir ez-Zor, east Syria.

The media center of the Hajin Military Council (affiliated with the SDF) published on its official website that the engineering division of the Hajin Military Council forces managed to defuse an IED.

The bomb, according to the media center, was planned for remote detonation to target a primary school in Latwa neighborhood, in the center of Dhiban town in the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor.

It is noteworthy that the SDF has recently intensified its security operations in the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor, after the increased attacks of ISIS cells in the area.

Yesterday, the Hajin Military Council announced on its Facebook account the arrest of nine ISIS cells in an SDF security operation in the towns of Abu Hamam and Abu Hardoub, east of Deir ez-Zor.

...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.

"Our SDF and the Internal Security Forces conducted a security operation targeting the Deash terrorist cells in several villages and squatter camps in the eastern countryside of Raqqa city," the US-allied force said in a statement.

"Our forces raided a number of points in the camps where Deash terrorist cells used to hide and prepare for terrorist operations. As a result of the operation, 27 holy warriors and suspects were arrested and handed over to competent authorities," it added.

The SDF said on Sunday that they arrested 26 people in Deir ez-Zor, accusing them for being “active in smuggling & transferring detainees out of #Ghweran prison.”
