Islamist Rebels attack Assad Regime Forces west Aleppo

Mujahideen of Jaish al Muhajireen wal Ansar (JMA) have stormed regime forces in Ma’arat al-Artiq, west of Kafr Hamra and east of Babis, 82 km near Aleppo, Jihadist group, The Victorious Party In the Land of Ash-Sham, said in a statement posted online.

Meanwhile, a faction headed by Chechen fighter Sayfullakh Shishani is also fighting regime forces in Ma’arat al-Artik alongside Jaish al-Mujahideen, the group said.

Sayfullakh’s group joined Jabhat al-Nusra, however the Chechen jamaat appears to have retained its integrity as a unit and fights together with other groups as and when it is needed.

In relevant development, Khaled Abu Anas,  a senior Mujahid in Ahrar al-Sham, has accepted the peace treaty among the mujahideen groups of Sheikh al-Muhaysini, Jihadist sources said.
