Takfiri terrorists in Syria have reportedly received new supplies of Grad missiles from their foreign supporters in the face of their recent losses against the Syrian army.
Two terrorist commanders have told Reuters that their forces in Syria have been provided in “excellent quantities” with the ground-to-ground missiles that have a range of 20 kilometers (12 miles).
“It is excellent additional fire power for us,” one of the sources was quoted as saying.
The other terrorist commander said the missiles were being used to target Syrian army positions beyond the front line. “They give the factions longer reach,” he said.
The rise in foreign support for the terror groups come as Syrian armed forces, backed by the Russian air force, are advancing against terrorists on several fronts, particularly in the northwestern Province of Aleppo near the Turkish border.
Syrian soldiers have managed to cut major terrorist supply routes from Turkey, which has long severed as the main gateway for transit of new terrorist recruits and weapons in to the Arab country.
