Ahrar Al-Sham Storms Rival Terrorists’ Base in Northern Syria

Ahrar Al-Sham launched a surprise attack, today, on a military base of Tahrir al-Sham Hay’at (the Levant Liberation Board or the Al-Nusra Front) in Northern Syria.

According to opposition activists via social media, Ahrar Al-Sham stormed a military base of Tahrir al-Sham in the town of Kafr Hamra; this would result in a series of fierce clashes between the two militant groups, massdar news reported.

As a result of the Ahrar Al-Sham attack on Kafr Hamra, two military commanders from Tahrir Al-Sham were reported dead.

The two military commanders of Tahrir Al-Sham were identified by opposition activists as “Abu Turab” and “Abu Akram.”

The reason for the surprise attack by Tahrir Al-Sham is still not clear; however, some opposition activists believe it has to do with Tahrir al-Sham’s refusal to withdraw from the new demilitarized zone in Northwestern Syria.
