RNA - Hawar news quoted the sources from the town of al-Rae'i in al-Bab as saying that after one of the commanders of al-Hamazat terrorist group was detained by members of the 'Security Institute', heavy clashes erupted between the two sides, resulting in the injury of 10 militants.

Meantime, members of the Turkish-affiliated 'al-Bab Military Council' engaged in clashes with the so-called Free Syrian Army (FSA) which is directly trained by the Turkish army.

The sources said that during the clashes a number of terrorists from both sides were killed and wounded and they looted each other's properties.

Other sources also said that during the recent infightings among the terrorists in Jarablus and Azaz regions, 100 militants were killed and 200 others were wounded.

Relevant reports said last Thursday that unknown assailants' attack against the positions of Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at (the Levant Liberation Board) in Idlib extended the range of clashes among the terrorist groups in the region.

Dissident media activists reported that after heavy clashes between Ahrar al-Sham and 'Fastaqem Kama Omert' militants in Idlib, infighting erupted between unknown assailants and members of Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at in the Eastern town of Sanjar, adding that the former won control of several positions of Tahrir al-Sham temporarily.

Meantime, some members of Tahrir al-Sham said that the attack was launched by Jeish al-Fatehin militants - affiliated to Ahrar al-Sham - at the order of the group's commander Hessam Salamah.

Tahrir al-Sham members were put on the alert against Jeish al-Fatehin for several hours after the attack.
