Syrian governmental troops use bombing barrels

Syrian governmental troops bombarded large swaths of the Syrian city of Daraa on Friday, as the governmental fighter jets threw over 36 bombing barrels on the city in coincidence with launching over 39 missile attacks against the strongholds of the opposition in different areas of the city with no information about the humanitarian losses.

Meanwhile, the opposition factions targeted several rocket-propelled grenades in areas controlled by government forces in the city of Daraa. Government forces on Thursday night shelled areas in the western town of Gharya in the eastern countryside of Daraa.

Unknown gunmen opened fire indiscriminately in the town of Idlib, killing a child and injuring his mother. According to Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a convoy of 45 trucks carrying about 16,000 food rations and 16,000 bags of flour, medical supplies and baby food entered the town of Talbessa in northern countryside of Homs under the supervision of the Syrian Red Crescent and the International Committee of the Red Cross.

However, governmental forces shelled areas in the town of Kafrlaha in the countryside of Homs, as one person was killed and others were injured by the fall of shells fired by the ISIS extremist group on places in the village of Masaudia controlled by government forces in the eastern countryside of Homs.

Government forces shelled areas in the town of Latamna in the northern district of Hama, as they also shelled areas near the oil pipeline and other locations in the surface area of the eastern countryside of Hama with no information about humanitarian losses.

Kurdish fighter Habun Kamishli proudly recalled the cat and mouse game she played with an Islamic State suicide bomber in the Syrian town of Raqqa, where the militant group is likely to make its last stand.

“I was standing on a rooftop yesterday as our forces advanced. I noticed he was trying to sneak from one street to another to get into the building and kill us,” she said. “Then I took a picture of his body with my phone. We are avenging the deaths of our fellow Kurds.”
