Suffering deadly blows at the hands of YPG-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Mansurah town southwest of Raqqa, ISIS gangs attacked the village of Abu Qibab east of Tabqa at 12:00 Saturday noon. The attack was repelled by SDF following fierce clashes with the ISIS groups. Bodies of 3 ISIS members, 5 Kalashnikov rifles and some ammunition remained in SDF possession.

In the meantime, SDF fighters continue their advance in Mansurah and have liberated another neighborhood in the town which is largely under their control. ISIS gangs are now stuck in the neighborhood by the Euphrates River.
