Deir Ezzor 24 Exclusive:
Deir Ezzor 24 network monitored the arrival of Brigadier General Ghassan Bilal, who is considered the right arm of “Maher al-Assad”, the security officer of the Fourth Division, accompanied by other officers, in Deir Ezzor province two days ago, with the aim of holding various meetings with Russian and clan parties, about engaging the Iranian side in negotiations to hand over the western countryside(Al-Jazeera).
These events come in light of the exclusion of the American side, as the Russian and Iranian parties are competing to control the sources of wealth in Deir Ezzor.
According to his relations and influence, “Bilal” seeks to appeal to tribal parties from the people of the province, led by the sheikh of the “Bakara” clan, also known for his influence, “Nawaf al-Bashir” loyal to the Iranian militias and the commander of the “Asud Syria” Corps, where he held extensive meetings with notables in the region to achieve his goals..
