IS mercenaries urged on laying the mines, including the laser and the thermal ones intensively, and laying of soil mounds, in the villages of Hajin area, in order to block the progress of the Syrian Democratic Forces, which aims to liberate the last bastions stronghold in the east of the Euphrates River.

The engineering teams of the Syrian Democratic Forces began cleaning the village of Baguz Fowkani of Hajin area, which was left behind by IS mercenaries, immediately after liberation, in order to restore life. The teams came close to cleaning the whole village.

In this context, a member of the demining teams Bahoz Hasaka said that their members have begun cleaning the village since Friday, and they are rushing in the cleaning operations in view of the significant progress achieved by Syrian Democratic Forces.

"The mercenaries have laid thermal mines, known for their strong destructive power, in the agricultural land and houses in order to kill civilians in villages, and this is what they have done in Bagouz Fawqani village."

On the other hand, Bahoz Hasaka said that IS mercenaries urged the closure of the roads completely through the soil mounds. "Our machineries are working to remove the mounds to open the roads leading to the village, with the aim of returning the residents to their homes later."

Bahoz appealed to all the people who return to their homes to inform the Syrian Democratic Forces of any strange bodies and not to approach them.
