The National Defense (ND) militia intensified patrols on the Deir Ezzor-Palmyra highway and established two temporary checkpoints in the al-Banorama area.
The Assad forces’ 4th Division fortified their outposts in the al-Banorama area by setting concrete barriers and deploying pick up vehicles and armored vehicles. The 4th Division blocked the highway this afternoon.
This Assad forces’ and ND’’ militia security operation coincides with a campaign by both sides and the al-Quds Liwaa militia to comb the western Deir Ezzor badiya.
