Unidentified gunmen, believed to be from the Tribal Army, targeted a Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) military point near the Euphrates River bank in Al-Shafah, east of Deir ez-Zor, using machine guns over the past 59 minutes from 12:16 AM UTC, according to a Naher Media correspondent. No information on human casualties has been received. Separately, a flight of International Coalition military aircraft conducted a low-altitude pass over the sky of Al-Shaddadi in southern Al-Hasakah countryside during this period, as reported by Euphrates Post. These incidents follow SDF deployments of reinforcements, including tanks, to the Deir Hafer and Maskanah fronts in Aleppo countryside on January 12, according to a Syrian military source cited by Al Jazeera.
