Day seven of the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) offensive at the Al-Yarmouk Camp began with the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) launching a barrage of mortar shells at the latter’s positions on 30th Street; this led to fierce clashes on the border of the Al-Qadam District between the two parties.
With the firefights engulfing 30th Street, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC) – in coordination with the Palestine Liberation Army (PLA) and Fatah Al-Intifada – attacked the ISIS militants on Libya Street, recapturing the territory lost to the enemy combatants on Sunday night.
The Palestinian resistance forces are now in control of 40 percent of the Al-Yarmouk and Falasteen Camp Districts, along with the majority of Al-Tadamon – the firefights at the latter district involves the Islamist forces not loyal to ISIS.
