|| Situation in the City and Countryside ||
¤ Hama City:
The vicious campaign by regime forces against the people of Hama continues. Today, Assad regime forces raided and looted all houses in al-Sakhaneh neighborhood, and arrested about 15 young men from the Eisa family. Security forces and shabiha roaming around the industrial area were stealing everything in sight, including mobile phones and cash. They were traveling in five civilian vehicles. Assad regime forces have also begun demolishing houses in Mashaa' Wadi al-Jouz.
Smoke filled the sky of Tareeq Halab neighborhood today after regime forces set houses on fire. The forces stormed the neighborhood near Fatima Mosque, and reportedly broke down the doors of shops and houses from which residents previously fled. Mustafa al-Narayji and three of his brothers were arrested, as was the preacher of Fatima al-Zahraa Mosque, Khaled al-Khateeb Abu Saeed, who is blind.
Regime forces launched a campaign of raids and arrests in the Palestinian Refugee camp in Hama this afternoon. They thoroughly searched houses, and are positioned in the area behind Naseh Alwani School.
A new armored vehicle is positioned outside the buildings near the Kazo Checkpoint, with many security forces gathered in the area. Some, but not all, of the snipers positioned atop buildings in the neighborhood have come down. A number of houses and buildings overlooking the checkpoint have been robbed, and security forces continue to patrol the neighborhood.
At around 11 p.m, regime forces raided al-Qusour neighborhood and arrested about 20 people on the street behind the entrance to al-Thawra Garden. Some of them are from the Saleeb, Terki, al-Halawati and Waheed families. They beat the detainees before taking them to the computer institute, a base for shabiha. Reports say that regime forces are positioned on the final story of a residential building across from the garden, and residents in the besieged neighborhood are living in a state of panic.
¤ Hama Countryside:
Kafranbooda:
This morning, regime helicopters dropped explosive barrels onto Kafranbooda. In the evening, shelling of the town with rocket launchers and Gvozdika artillery from checkpoints in the surrounding area was reported.
Salamieh:
Today, Assad regime forces assassinated a man by the name of Mohammad Fawaz Yaqoub. A black Kia Rio driven by a number of shabiha opened machine gun fire onto his shop at around 5:20 a.m. on the northern corniche next to al-Qadseyeh School. He sustained three gunshot wounds, one of which was to the heart. He was born in 1981, was a bachelor and worked at a bakery. About two months ago, he tore a picture of Bashar al-Assad during the funeral for one of his relatives.
Last night, intense clashes broke out between regime and opposition forces near the artillery battalion in eastern Barri village.
al-Ramleyeh:
Al-Ramleyeh village, in Hama's southern suburbs, witnessed heavy artillery shelling.
Eastern Hama Countryside:
Free Syrian Army forces targeted a car belonging to shabiha on Salamieh Road in Hama's eastern suburbs, killing all passengers, at around 10 a.m. today.
In the One Body battle, three tanks were destroyed and a number of regime soldiers were killed as they were moving from al-Tlaiseyeh toward al-Zoghba. The regime forces retreated afterward.
Northern Hama Countryside:
The Jund Allah Brigade of the al-Fath al-Islami Group (al-Mhajreen Battalion, Ansar al-Haq Battalion, and the engineering battalion) attacked the Jalameh and al-Hamameyat checkpoints. al-Mhajreen and Ansar a-Haq stormed the Jalameh checkpoint, and destroyed a BMP and a T-62 tank, and killed a number of regime forces. The engineering battalion attacked al-Hamameyat checkpoint with a number of homemade missiles, and directly struck the checkpoint six times, after which smoke was seen rising from within.
Helfaya:
Helfaya is living under heavy siege by regime forces, and all means of living have been cut off from the city, including flour, gas, fuel and petroleum, for five consecutive days. Helfaya-Mharde Road and Helfaya-Al-Majdal Rorads have been completely closed off for two days.
