AGPS’s correspondent confirmed violent fighting the day before yesterday, between the Khaled ibn Al-Walid battalion, affiliated to ISIS, and the armed Syrian opposition groups in the western Yarmouk basin, which is home to many Palestinian camps and gatherings in the south of Syria.
Our correspondent added that the clashes came after ISIS attempted to progress towards the areas controlled by the armed opposition last night, using light and heavy weapons.
The remaining Palestinian refugees in the area are living in difficult conditions because of the shelling and clashes, as well as the tightening of ISIS on them, in addition to the lack of financial resources, the spread of unemployment, the interruption of aid and the poor health conditions.
The western Yarmouk basin had seen a wave of displacement due to the intensified fighting between ISIS and the armed opposition factions. The Khaled ibn Al-Walid battalion, which is affiliated to ISIS, is in control of a number of areas in the Yarmouk basin, including the towns of Tasil, Jileen, Sahm and Tell Al-Jomoua.
