Syrian army soldiers, backed by allied fighters from popular defense groups, have carried out large-scale mop-up operations against Takfiri Daesh terrorists in the country’s Eastern Province of Dayr al-Zawr, dealing heavy blows to the extremists.
According to Press TV, a military source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the Syrian forces thwarted a string of terrorist attacks on Tal Barouk district in the province on Friday following intense clashes with Daesh terrorists.
More than 150 Daesh Takfiris were killed and large number of others injured in the process.
Elsewhere in al-Gharbiyeh village in the Southwestern Province of Dara’a, army units destroyed an artillery post and a pickup truck equipped with a heavy machine gun.
Syrian government forces also destroyed two positions of Jabhat Fath al-Sham (Front for the Conquest of the Levant) – formerly known as al-Nusra Front – in Dara'a city's Dara'a al-Balad district.
Syrian army troopers, together with popular defense fighters, also destroyed a bulldozer on the road linking al-Hamidiya village to Jebbata al-Khashab area in the Southwestern Province of Quneitra on Thursday evening.
The terrorists were reportedly using the bulldozer to make encampments and slow the advances of the government forces.
