Local sources told Al Mayadeen that fierce clashes broke out between Syria’s General Security Forces and suspected members of ISIS in the neighborhoods of Haydariya and Jisr al-Jazmati on the outskirts of Aleppo.

According to field reports, three members of the General Security Forces were captured, while one was killed and others wounded during confrontations in the Jazmati area with armed groups. In a dramatic escalation, one suspected militant reportedly detonated himself amid the ongoing firefight.

The clashes triggered a wave of military and security reinforcements throughout Aleppo, with temporary checkpoints set up across several neighborhoods in response to the unfolding situation.

A spokesperson from Syria’s Ministry of Interior announced a “special operation” by the General Security Directorate in eastern Aleppo, which targeted hideouts affiliated with ISIS.

The operation led to the neutralization of one militant, the arrest of another, and the seizure of weapons, explosive devices, and clothing marked with the General Security Forces insignia.

Attacks against civilians escalate

Late Friday, armed raids and abductions were reported this week in both southern Damascus and rural Idlib, amid ongoing instability in various regions of Syria.

According to the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a government-affiliated armed group linked to the Ministries of Defense and Interior stormed a home in the Sayidah Zeinab area, south of the capital, two days ago.

The raid reportedly involved physical assaults, verbal abuse, and acts of vandalism, including theft and the destruction of personal belongings.

The armed group is said to have detained two brothers, one of them a youth, from the Shiite community, taking them to an unknown location. Their whereabouts remain unknown, and no charges or official statements have been issued regarding the reasons for their detention.
