ISIL, Al-Nusra Front Continue Fierce Clashes in Hasaka

The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and the Al-Nusra Front continued their heavy infighting in Hasaka province in Northeastern Syria.
The clashes between the two Al-Qaeda-linked terrorist groups continued in the Southern parts of the Hasaka province, specially in Merkadeh town.

Tens of militants from both sides have been killed and dozens more injured in the fierce battles which have continued for months now.

After more than two years of fighting side-by-side and leading one of the bloodiest conflicts in the recent history of Middle-East, al-Qaeda affiliated groups have been making increasing moves against each other in the last few months.

Militants in Syria have been committing numerous war crimes against people and Syrian army soldiers throughout the country during their bloody war.

Sources said the number of antigovernment combat factions has reached 1,750, including the FSA, “ISIL, and other groups working for different agendas.

The conflict in Syria started in March 2011, when sporadic pro-reform protests turned into a massive insurgency following the intervention of western and regional states.

The unrest, which took in terrorist groups from across Europe, the Middle-East and North Africa, has transpired as one of the bloodiest conflicts in recent history.

As the foreign-backed insurgency in Syria continues without an end in sight, the US government has boosted its political and military support to Takfiri extremists.

Washington has remained indifferent to warnings by Russia and other world powers about the consequences of arming militant groups.
