Free Syrian Army Southern Front Martyr Forces M1 Ahmed Al-Abdo Number 2016/6/1 Date In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful Top secret South Report of the Commander of the Martyr Ahmed Al-Abdo Forces About the combat action carried out Starting from the morning of 26/5/2016, and after the desert units were well organized, The reconnaissance and monitoring unit surveyed the targets in the area, including the Kabd checkpoint, the Zaza checkpoint, the Qatari farm, and other targets in the area. The implementing unit moved on the morning of 5/30/2016 towards the Al-Rukban Al-Tanf camp, the Al-Hil area, and the Al-Juwaif area to demonstrate the unit’s movement in the desert. This was to reassure the organization that we did not intend to attack it. We returned part of the forces that were on the mission to the camp and kept another part close to the work area. And starting from this morning, after conducting the reconnaissance, the force moved towards the Kabd checkpoint only. There was a turn at the checkpoint for two anti-tank vehicles. After the clash, they withdrew towards the north, and the unit continued moving on the Damascus-Baghdad road. Before reaching the checkpoint (Zaza), a flanking group was sent from the north of the checkpoint to cut off the supply route to Al-Busayrah, and a unit from the west to cut off the road from Al-Sabaa Biyar. The checkpoint was stormed secretly and taken over, where light weapons, a communications station, communication devices, other items, and some documents were seized.
