DeirEzzor24 exclusive report:
A private source told the DeirEzzor24 Network that the commanders of the Fatemiyoun militia expressed their anger at some Iranian-backed militia commanders in Deir Ezzor, after the recent American strikes on its positions in Deir Ezzor.
The source added that a heated meeting, which was about the USA strikes on Iranian militias’ positions in Deir Ezzor province, was held in the house of Haj Fadel’s house in the Qosor neighborhood in Deir Ezzor city, which included Hajj Kamil, the commander-in-chief of the IRGC militia in Deir Ezzor, Abu Zainab al-Afghani, the commander of the Fatemiyoun militia, as well as a third security official whose identity was anonymous.
He pointed out that the commanders of the Fatemiyoun militia were angry and felt betrayed because they were not informed of the date of the US strikes, like the rest of the militias in Deir Ezzor, noting that the strikes eliminated more than 30 people, most of whom were elements belonging to the Fatemiyoun militia in the town of Ayyash, west of Deir Ezzor, including military commanders.
An hour before the US strikes occurred, the Iranian militias had already evacuated most of their positions in Deir Ezzor. However, they kept some local members stationed in some headquarters and did not inform the Fatimiyun militia of the timing of the strikes, given the sensitive position (“guarding weapons and ammunition depots”) it occupies in the town of Ayyash.
