SDF accuses govt forces of ongoing attacks despite truce

The SDF Media Centre says despite the ceasefire, “factions affiliated with the Damascus government continue their attacks on our forces in Ain Issa, al-Shaddadi and Raqqa”. “We affirm to public opinion that the level of threat is escalating significantly amid attempts by these factions to reach the [al-Aqtan prison in Raqqa] and seize control of it,” the centre said in a statement. “Such actions could lead to serious security repercussions that threaten stability and open the door to a return of chaos and terrorism,” it added.
