The Yarmouk-Yalda thoroughfare has been closed off for the third day running, blocking civilians’ access out of and into the area and the entry of much-needed foodstuff and medicines to the camp. Students and schoolchildren have not been able to attend classes as a result of the blockade.
Meanwhile, ISIS snipers continue to gun down civilians in the nearby Yalda town. Two such attacks occurred over the past three days against two residents, one among whom sustained moderate wounds while the other has reportedly been left seriously injured.
At the same time, at least 12 persons were kidnapped by ISIS and others summoned to questioning following the murder of a so-called Abu Rabi’ Kar’ouna. Civilians have also sounded distress signals over the daily crackdowns perpetrated by ISIS under the religious pretext and the forced evacuation of civilian homes near Tahrir AlSham-led zones.
Clashes also flared up between ISIS and Tahrir AlSham (formerly known as AlNusra) on the Haifa access road. Other clashes between the opposition outfits and ISIS militias were spotted along the area stretching from AlBasel pool to AlUruba checkpoint and AlZin neighborhood.
