ISIS gangs have retreated from the villages of Iyûn, Xirbe, Berhan, Tenûze, Qerkelbîn, Elwaş and Silsane to the southeast of Azaz, and left these to the Turkish backed radical gang groups.

Local sources report that Turkish affiliated gangs are conducting artillery attacks on empty houses in these villages to make it look like they are engaged in clashes with ISIS groups.

In the meantime, Jaysh Al-Thuwar (The Army of Revolutionaries) said in a written statement that ISIS gangs retreating from Aleppo region have launched an aggression on their forces in Um Al-Qura and Um Al-Hosh villages.
