All-out Syrian attack vs. ISIS

SYRIAN GOVERNMENT forces used warplanes, helicopters and artillery on Sunday to pound districts of the capital held by ISIS, in a bid to enforce an evacuation deal reached with the militants earlier in the week.

Two Palestinian refugees, a father and son, were killed during the fighting at the Yarmouk refugee camp in Damascus, according to the United Nations Palestinian refugee agency, which added that thousands of homes have been destroyed in four days of fighting.

Hundreds of ISIS militants hold parts of the Yarmouk camp and nearby area of Hajar al-Aswad in southern Damascus. They agreed to give up their last pocket there on Friday but have yet to begin surrendering to government forces and relocating to ISIS-held areas elsewhere in the country.

State-run TV showed thick gray smoke billowing from the Hajar al-Aswad neighborhood on Sunday, and government warplanes streaking overhead amid heavy bombardment of the area.
