The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) announced a surge in security tensions in the areas of Ain Issa, al-Shaddadi and Raqqa, confirming the outbreak of violent clashes between its forces and factions affiliated with the Syrian government, despite the announced ceasefire agreement.

"Despite the declared ceasefire agreement and the official statements issued in this regard, factions affiliated with the Damascus government continue their attacks on our forces in Ain Issa, Al-Shaddadi, and Raqqa," the SDFMedia Centre said in a statement on X .

"At this time, violent clashes are taking place between our forces and those factions in the vicinity of Al-Aqtan Prison in Raqqa, which houses detainees of the ISIS terrorist organisation, representing an extremely dangerous development," the statement added.

"We affirm to public opinion that the level of threat is escalating significantly, amid attempts by these factions to reach the prison and seize control of it," the statement said, warning that such actions could lead to serious security repercussions that threaten stability and open the door to a return of chaos and terrorism.

"Accordingly, we present these facts to the public and hold the attacking parties fully responsible for any catastrophic consequences that may result from the continuation of these attacks," the statement said.
