Syrian soldiers, allied fighters liberate 4 villages east of Aleppo
Syrian army soldiers and fighters from allied popular defense groups have made more gains against members of the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group in the country’s northwestern province of Aleppo, pushing terrorists out of four villages.
The media bureau of operations command for the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement announced in a statement on Sunday that Syrian soldiers and their allies had captured the villages of Sora, Moran, Surja al-Saghira and Surja al-Kabira, located about 16 kilometers southwest of al-Bab town, where Turkish-backed Takfiri terrorists are active.
On August 24, 2016, the Turkish air force and special ground forces kicked off Operation Euphrates Shield inside Syria in a purported bid to support the Free Syrian Army militants and rid the border area of Daesh terrorists and fighters from the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) and Democratic Union Party (PYD).
Meanwhile, a Syrian army unit targeted a battle tank belonging to Daesh terrorists in the Mohandessin district of the eastern city of Dayr al-Zawr, killing and injuring several terrorists.
Syrian forces also struck a Daesh position and shot down an unmanned aerial vehicle in the Maqabir district.
Scores of Daesh terrorists were killed and their vehicles destroyed as Syrian government forces conducted operations in the villages of al-Bogheilia and Ayash plus al-Houwayqa neighborhood of Dayr al-Zawr and al-Taim Field.
