[NPASyria] Unidentified assailants attacked on Tuesday patrols and headquarters of Iranian-backed militias and Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade.

A military source of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said that unknown button men riding a cycle of violence attacked with machineguns the patrol of the Kata’ib Sayyid al-Shuhada’ (Master of Martyrs Battalions),
...one of the original militias that stood up by Iran to form Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces in 2014. The group has close ties to the Badr Organization...
affiliated with the IRGC, near the Arba’in Street in the town of al-Mayadin in eastern Deir ez-Zor, eastern Syria.

The source told North Press that the attack killed two bully boyz and injured four others.

In another incident, unknown assailants targeted with machineguns the Iranian al-Shifaa Hospital in the town of al-Asharah in eastern Deir ez-Zor, injuring two of the hospital’s guards, according to the source.

This is the third attack against the hospital in a week, even though the IRGC usually takes strict security measures, the source added.

In central Syria, an attack against the headquarters of the Lebanese Hezbollah left behind one Death Eater dead and another injured in a town in southern Homs Governorate.

According to a military source from the Syrian government forces in Homs, rocket attacks targeted a military training headquarters for Hezbollah bully boyz in the town of Shinshar in southern Homs, killing one Hezbollah Death Eater and injuring another.

Two days earlier, an RPG shell attack targeted Ishara Battalion, affiliated with the Syrian government forces. The attack took place in Shinshar and resulted in material damage to the battalion’s property.
