Script:
Syrian Democratic Forces achieved good progress last week in northeastern Deir EzZor countryside, in the Syria-Iraqi border area. During this period we were focused on non-combatant operations. Our forces have strengthened its defensive positions, secured the area, and expanded its operations to clear the mines planted by ISIS.

Our forces managed to dismantle hundreds of mines and IEDs, and ensure the safety of our people who return to their homes. We remind our people to be careful and encourage them not to get close or touch any suspicious objects, and to report any criminal or terrorist activities to the nearest SDF checkpoint.

As our fight against ISIS continues, we are still seeing Syrian men and women ready and willing to join the Syrian Democratic Forces. Hundreds of new recruits are joining at our recruitment centers in northern Syria and participating in defeating ISIS and defending their people and home.

Soon the military operations will start in the Middle Euphrates River Valley. ISIS will be completely defeated in northeastern Syria and the people will be able to go back to their normal life.

Besides that, civil councils are working hard to meet the needs of all Syrians and are constantly expanding their work. The Deir EzZor Civil Council expanded into the Kesrat area and opened a new People’s Council that will provide essential services.

Also, hundreds of hygiene kits were divested to the Shaddadi Civil Council and were distributed to civilians in recently liberated areas.

Recovery to our wounded, glory to our martyrs, freedom and democracy for all Syrians.

Thank you.
