    Extrapolating the maximum potential toll from casualties I and others have observed, it's plausible that government forces suffered up to 50 casualties at al-Hamamiyat, while rebel forces lost anywhere between 60 and 70 fighters. Obviously this is guesswork and not confirmed.

    All four of the fighters were reportedly from Tremseh village, N. territory, and were part of Jaish al-Izza - not confirmed but considering that Jaish al-Izza is a local group, it would make sense.
