They must be Syrian fighters. Remember, the local Islamic State fighters in Deir Ezzor have been left to rot by their foreign commanders -- told to stay and fight to the last man while the commanders evacuated. From the report today at Sputnik it's a small group, and the source didn't say (or didn't know) why they surrendered, but maybe word is traveling among those fighters that they were betrayed.
