DeirEzzor24 exclusive report
DeirEzzor24 learned from special sources that the Iranian-backed militias are preparing to attack and target areas where the global coalition and SDF are present in Deir Ezzor.
According to the sources, the initial targets are the locations where the coalition and SDF are present opposite Al-Bukamal, Al-Mayadeen, and the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor, reaching the Conoco field base northeast of Deir Ezzor.
The sources confirmed that the orders to target the coalition forces came from Iran, and were conveyed by the leader of the Revolutionary Guard militia called “Hajj Reza” during a meeting with the leaders of the Iranian-backed militias in the farms camp on the outskirts of Al-Mayadeen, and demanded the need to respond immediately and urgently to any attack on the militias on Syrian territory, and also demanded a strong response to the international coalition forces, to be implemented in the coming days.
The so-called “Hajj Hussein”, the official of the Revolutionary Guards militia in Al-Mayadeen, also called on the militia leaders in Deir Ezzor to deploy short-range “Katyusha” missiles, “Golan” rocket launchers, and heavy artillery positions between the agricultural lands and demolished houses on the river strip from the city of Al-Bukamal east of Deir Ezzor to the town of Al-Tabni west of the province, and to direct them towards the areas east of the Euphrates, especially towards the bases of the Al-Omar and Conoco fields.
This preparation by the Iranian-backed militias in Deir Ezzor comes in conjunction with attacks launched by Israel on the positions of the Lebanese Hezbollah militia in southern Lebanon.
