The observatory, headquartered in Britain, stated on Saturday that the death toll is still likely to rise due to the presence of critically injured individuals, according to Asharq Al-Awsat News.

They also added that Daesh militants targeted at least one military bus in the Syrian desert in the area of Al-Mayadeen, in what was the most violent attack in 2023.

According to the observatory, the death toll from military operations within the Syrian desert has reached 412 since the beginning of the year.

Areas in the southern and eastern parts of Deir ez-Zur desert still serve as a refuge for Daesh elements, alongside the Damascus - Deir ez-Zur road southwest of Deir ez-Zur, according to what the German news agency quoted from the Syrian forces.
