Fierce clashes in Adhamiya

"As usual, I couldn’t sleep last night. It was warm and of course, there was no electricity to turn on the fans. But what made me unable to sleep wasn’t the hot weather. It was the clashes that broke out in central Adhamiya. This time the shooting wasn’t as every day’s. It is continuous and accompanied by heavy sounds of explosions.

Last night’s fierce clashes erupted in central Adhamiya started at 1 a.m. when shootings and sounds of explosions broke out the silence of the night. Thank God that I don’t live in the center of the neighborhood. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to read this entry. I might be either killed or jailed in my house."
