No group has claimed responsibility for the assassination, so far. However, several Syrian sources suggested that ISIS cells were behind the ambush. The terrorist group is known to be active in southern and western Deir Ezzor.

The SAA and its allies carry out operations against ISIS terrorists in southern and western Deir Ezzor on a regular basis. Yet, the terrorist group is still active in the region.

Somehow I get the impression that Trump is micromanaging these wars for Israel while the world burns. It wouldn’t surprise me if he orders ISIS hits.

Possible – but the ‘Friends of Syria’ – that’s more then just Trump:

Albania, Canada, Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States – it’s all the Mason/Donmeh/Frankist/Zionist controlled bandit states, and don’t forget the main ISIS maker Israel…
