There are no tensions, said Abu Tayf, a former businessman who asked to be called only Tayfs father. We all still have one goal: to get rid of Assad, a reference to Syrian President Bashar Assad. The reason that black flags, the symbol of Islamist fighters, are flying in the town is that the international community has let the Syrian people down, he said, and they became desperate.
Five days later, militants kidnapped Abu Tayf while he was out in the city. He hasnt been seen since. Then on Aug. 13, a car bomb was detonated in front of the headquarters of his Ahfad al Asoul brigade. Those who werent killed by the blast were arrested, according to locals."
