On Saturday, January 2, members of Assad forces’ 4th division beat a number of Deir Ezzor’s people at al-Panorama checkpoint at the southern entrance of Deir Ezzor as they were on their way back coming from Damascus, according to Deir Ezzor 24 network correspondent.
Our correspondent said that the checkpoint members beat a number of reporters on the pretext that they were late to show their ID cards.
After they beat them, the members ordered the bus driver to go and leave the young men at the checkpoint for several hours, as a punishment for being late to show their ID cards, amid shouting and insults against the passengers.
The 4th Division took its wrath out on the people of Deir Ezzor after 30 members of Assad’s forces were killed in al-Shoula area a few days ago.
