MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The SDF repelled on Saturday several attacks of the Daesh terror group, outlawed in Russia, in northern Syria.
In the morning Daesh terrorists attacked the village of Misharfa located west of the city of Al Tabqah. The SDF fighters managed to prevent a suicide car attack and to seize two Daesh tanks and two bodies of killed terrorists. Two SDF soldiers suffered injuries in the fighting.
