Reinforcements for groups affiliated with Abu Mohammad al-Julani reached contact lines with Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Deir Hafer, east of Aleppo, Syria, over the past hour, according to Almihwar News. SDF militia fired on civilians to force them back near Al-Harmal village in the same area during this period. The SDF continues to prevent civilians from exiting Deir Hafir and its environs through a safe humanitarian corridor, despite the Syrian Arab Army's Operations Authority extending the specified exit period, as stated in a post by Qasemqt on X translated from Arabic. This follows a US patrol with armored vehicles heading toward Deir Hafer earlier this morning, as reported by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights at 8:45 AM UTC.
