3 FSA, ISIL Terror Commanders Killed in Dara’a

 

A senior commander of the so-called Free Syrian Army (FSA) terrorist group and 2 ISIL commanders were killed in Dara’a province in Syria on Thursday.

News websites affiliated to the dissidents reported on Thursday that Farouq Qazal, the commander of  Brigade 15 of Special Forces affiliated to Ferqat al-Qadesiyeh of the FSA, was killed when a bomb detonated in Dara’a al-Balad region in Dara’a city, adding that another militant was also wounded.

According to the websites, Qazal was defusing a bomb which was planted in front of the house of one of Ahrar al-Sham commanders named Abu Jamal Abu Nabovat when it was detonated.

Also, based on reports, infighting between the ISIL and FSA militants in Western Dara’a killed 10 ISIL militants, including two of its commanders namely Abu Mohammad Abedin and Abdollah al-Safouri.

A Lebanese media outlet reported last month that assassination of FSA commanders has significantly increased after intensified clashes between the FSA and the rival terrorist group of ISIL in the Southern province of Dara’a.

The Arabic-language al-Manar tv network reported that Naser Khalil Mahasenah, commander of the FSA-affiliated Jeish Ababil, was killed along with several of his aids in a booby-trapped attack on his cars on a road connecting the towns of Zamrin and al-Hareh to each other in Northwestern Dara’a.

The news network added that Sharif al-Kayed, another military commander of the FSA, was kidnapped on al-Karak al-Sharqi’s road to al-Harak region in the Eastern countryside of Dara’a by unknown attackers.

Al-Manar went on to say that the FSA and the ISIL are engaged in fierce clashes in the towns of Jalin, Hit and Odwan in the Western countryside of Dara’a.
