DerEzzor24 exclusive report
DeirEzzor24 Network learned from private sources that the Iraqi Hezbollah militia smuggled large quantities of sheep, cows and camels from Albukamal and Deir Ezzor in general to Iraq in recent days.
The sources said that the militia smuggled herds of livestock into Iraq through the smuggling gate (the military gate in Al-Hari) due to the proximity of Eid Al-Adha, and Iraqi merchants affiliated with the militia bought them.
She added that the militia buys livestock from the people of Deir Ez-Zor through persuasion and intimidation, and the person responsible for smuggling them is called “Abu Fatima,” affiliated with the Iraqi Hezbollah militia. He employs brokers and merchants who buy livestock for him from the cities and transport them to the town of Al-Hari in the Albukamal countryside to be smuggled into Iraq.
It is worth noting that the so-called “Abu Fatima” and his brokers have papers from the Revolutionary Guard militia that allow them to pass through the Assad forces’ checkpoints without stopping them or taking a ticket from their cars.
