The statement also reported confirmed casualties among the attacking groups, though it did not provide further details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The forces noted that such incidents contribute to heightening tensions in areas where relative stability has been maintained through SDF-led security measures and the civil administration efforts of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES). The statement stressed that these actions \u201caffirm the insistence of those groups on dragging the region toward tension and undermining all efforts aimed at preserving stability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The SDF emphasized that its response during the confrontation remained measured and proportionate. \u201cOur forces acted in line with the nature of the assault, fully committed to restraint and preventing the expansion of the clashes,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The eastern Raqqa countryside has periodically witnessed security incidents involving a mix of actors, including pro-government groups and cells linked to the Islamic State (ISIS). SDF units, backed by the Global Coalition, continue to conduct routine security operations to prevent further instability in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In its concluding remarks, the SDF called on the parties supporting the attacking factions \u201cto rein in their groups and halt their irresponsible practices, which pose a direct threat to the security and stability of the entire area.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Atoun Jan<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) \u2013 The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) announced on Saturday that they had thwarted an attack launched by factions affiliated with the Syrian government in the eastern countryside of Raqqa.
