The Islamic State group (IS) has "started to empty out many of their bases and positions in Deir Ezzor province," said Abu Osama, an activist from the eastern region mostly under jihadist control. Speaking to AFP via the Internet, Abu Osama said all of IS's k**wn positions in Eshara, a town about 60 kilometres (45 miles) east of Deir Ezzor's provincial capital, had been "shut down". Abu Osama also said the jihadists had emptied out the former gover**rate building in Deir Ezzor city, which IS had turned into their main ******* storage depot in the area.
