Local sources reported that a member of the Iranian-backed Iraqi al-Nujaba Movement militia was killed after midnight in the southern countryside of Aleppo and another member disappeared, causing a state of security alert for the movement's members in the area.

"Ain al-Furat" network reported that the member, "Abu Abbas", a former fighter in the Iraqi National Abu al-Fadl al-Abbas militia, was found dead in the middle of the night, killed during the guard's shift at the point near the headquarters of al-Nujaba in Banan village, south of Aleppo.

The network added that the other element of the militia lost its tracks, which prompted it to accuse him of killing his colleague Abu Abbas, who were present at the point together.

It pointed out that Al-Nujaba Movement mobilized its members in the area after the incident, as they deployed in the vicinity of the headquarters and some streets of the village, in addition to searching some homes to search for the missing element.

It is noteworthy that the relationship of the Iranian militias with their local elements is witnessing a kind of rift and distrust due to the many cases of desertion and defection and the sacrifice of leaders to the local elements by pushing them to the first lines and remote points in the desert.
