Clashes were renewed in south Damascus between the armed Syrian opposition groups and ISIS, last night. Light and medium weapons were heard in the areas of fighting. ISIS was attempting to progress on the opposition’s account, however AGPS confirmed its failure to do so.
In the meantime, the armed Syrian opposition groups stopped an attempted attack by ISIS targeting one of its locations close to the Japanese Hospital in Yarmouk camp.
According to our correspondent, ISIS attacked in the early hours of Wednesday, targeting the factions affiliated to the armed Syrian opposition groups, using RPJ mortars, as well as attempting to break into the hospital in an armored car, however the opposition groups managed to stop the attack.
In a similar context, the Syrian regime forces and its affiliated groups in Nisreen Road, targeted Al-Tadamon area, neighboring to Yarmouk camp. According to our reporter, they opened heavy fire using 14.5 caliber machine guns in Daaboul Road.
This came on the eleventh day of the closure of Yarmouk camp’s only crossing, which supplies its residents with their necessary food supplies, by the Syrian opposition until it is neutralized and not attacked by ISIS. Despite the great danger to their lives, a number of civilians were still seen passing the crossing.
Yarmouk camp’s residents continue to complain of the violations and repressive practices by ISIS against them. The residents are suffering from the siege imposed on the camp and the catastrophic humanitarian conditions that almost 3000 Palestinians are living.
