The Payback: Unknown Gunmen Eliminated Perpetrator Of Recent Attack On Syrian Troops In Daraa

Support SouthFront

A former rebel commander that ordered the November 8 attack on Syrian troops in the town of Karak in the eastern Daraa countryside has been assassinated.

The attack targeted a checkpoint in Karak. Five Syrian service members, including Lt. Col. Sohan Othman, were killed in the attack. Six other service members were kidnapped, only to be freed a few hours later.

Local sources in Daraa confirmed that the mastermind behind the attack, Akef Abdo al-Zaki, was shot and killed by unidentified gunmen in the front of his house in Karak late on December 7. Al-Zaki’s 16-year old son, Mohamad, was also killed in the attack.

Al-Zaki was the commander of a local Free Syrian Army faction known as Eastern Karak Martyrs. In 2018, he joined the reconciliation process. However, he reportedly continued being involved in criminal activities, mainly ransom-kidnapping.

No side has claimed responsibility for the assassination of al-Zaki so far. However, opposition activists believe that the Syrian intelligence was behind the shooting.

The checkpoint, which was attacked by al-Zaki and his militants, was manned by officers of the Air Force Intelligence Directorate. The security force is highly-active in Daraa.

Following the attack, the Damascus government and locals in Karak agreed to restart the reconciliation process in the town. The Russian Military Police and the Russian-backed 8th Brigade, a unit of the 5th Corps that’s dedicated for former rebels, facilitated the agreement.

As of December 9, the situation in Karak is calm and the reconciliation process is holding up.

It should have a name such as SYRIAN INNOVATION.

They even has develloped a version named “An eye for at foot”.

They eye for a foot program is for Hesbollas already having lost a leg. If they loose the toher foot it saves money building onlylow houses and hispitals for them. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1d707e83209b4a9934bde108dba02902ec85c59f24cf00abec231ee7790d8423.jpg

You can see why Hesbollas always wear socks.
