Other reports close to Brigadier General Nashuan al-Saad, who hails from the city of al-Qaraytin, in the eastern rural area of Homs province, mourned his death during a search operation by ISIS operatives carried out by Assad forces in the area.

Unidentified gunmen attacked Lieutenant Muhammad Faiz al-Sharif, Division 4 of the Assad Forces, in the northern city of Daraa province on Friday, killing him on the spot.

In the last months of this year, dozens of al-Assad military and intelligence officers have been killed in separate incidents, and activists believe they were killed following a regime order to conceal their criminal activities, in case Bashar Assad faces trial in the future for crimes against the Syrian people.
