FM)

eyes were fixated on Homs, Idlib, Aleppo and Damascus, major clashes have been
taking place in Deir Ezzor Province, where local resistance leaders have been
taking advantage of the vast desert expanses to conduct an effective Guerrilla
warfare. Indeed, today, the leader of the Jaafar Brigade declared that his
troops control over 70% of the province http://youtu.be/aQqT9csADFU
But the commander also declares that his brigade will abide by the ceasefire
agreement, but reserves the right to defend the communities under their
protection.
