The source claimed that ISIS fighters killed five members of the SDF and captured two others during the attack.
Amaq added that ISIS fighters captured and destroyed a position of the SDF east of al-Shaafah village in southeastern Deir Ezzor. ISIS fighters also destroyed a BMP-1 vehicle of the SDF east of Hajin town with an ATGM according to the ISIS-linked news agency.
Meanwhile local sources revealed that ISIS had withdrawn from most of its positions inside Gharanij town north of Hajin. However, according to the sources, the US-backed force didn’t enter Gharanij yet due the effective resistance of the remaining ISIS fighters inside the town.
In a related development, ISIS executed two civilians in al-Shaafah village after accusing them of being SDF spies according to Amaq. However, local sources from Deir Ezzor revealed that the two civilians were only smuggling families to the SDF-held areas.

Correct!
Yes, SDF are the new flavour of the month with Yankerland and especially Israel and ISIS are having a pissy fit (which to a degree is understandable).
ABORTION RIGHTS IN HAJIN!
It a in-house fight just family matters.Now Russia must arm the terrorist to kill each other.
These are the same ISIS that was running around in Iraq and the fat emir was even there, this could be more of a recruitment drive with these guys.
Oh my! So that means ISIS have not been defeated. Ah, so the Americans were right all along. They need to be in Syria permanently to defeat ISIS and keep them away! Give me a break will you? This drama does not impress me or people with a shred of common sense. These masked men are US and co special forces and their contracted proxies. I’m wary of these Hollywood acts. The US, ISIS, SDF, FSA, Turkey and the rest of the imperialist, colonialist Zionist scum bags are all in Syria to topple the sole legitimate democratically elected government and president.
Very brilliant analyst.That’s the name of the show.USA is exposed everywhere from 911 to Yugoslavia, Iraq,Libya ,Iran,North Korea,Ukraine and Syria destruction for USA markets vitality.
the problem is quite simple….US delayed the payment of the salaries for ISIS members….since they are totally nut-cases ,they turned against sdf to put pressure!!!!once they get their money they will become ‘moderate opposition’ again and with reconciliation agreement they will join SDF…..until the next time…..
SDF and ISIS=same terrorist;DIE RATS DIE
Here comes abortion rights and gay marriage democracy to be full fill in Mecca with Salman the UDA imperialistically appointed kings blessing.The anti Christ is about to be reveal.
