DeirEzzor24 exclusive report:

This morning, Daesh cells carried out a series of attacks targeting several sites in the Al-Shula deserts and the western countryside of Deir Ezzor, the vicinity of the Kharata and Kusaiba oil fields, and sites in the Al-Masrab desert, south of the province.

The attack resulted in the killing of members of the pro-Russian Qaterji militia, and a number of members of the 17th Division, while Assad’s forces sent reinforcements to the western countryside with the aim of combing the area and repelling the expected attacks.

Assad’s forces and Russian militias have combed the area a week ago, and conducted campaigns in the Badia, without any significant results.
