Well-informed sources emphasized to the Deir Ezzor 24 Network that six local Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) militia escaped at night to the areas controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) through the al-Asharaa- Suwaydan Jazeera crossing.
According to the sources, the location of the fighters’ service is the T2 station southern al-Mayadeen, citing the reason for their defection for fear of the attacks of the Daesh, which targets the Assad and Iranian militias’ outposts in the al-Shamiya badiya west of the Euphrates, in addition to the low salaries they receive in exchange for joining the IRGC amidst high cost of living and the difficulty of providing needs , while most young people in the area are looking to emigrate.
