Syrian forces retake power company in Dayr al-Zawr

The Syrian army and its allies have managed to retake the electric power company in the south of the city of Dayr al-Zawr from the Daesh Takfiri terrorists.

Lebanon's al-Ahed news website reported on Friday that the advance came as airstrikes targeted the terrorists’ movements in the vicinity of the company and several areas, including al-Ma’amel and al-Maqaber.

To the west of the country, fierce clashes continued between Syrian troops and Daesh terrorists in the province of Homs.

The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said several air raids hit militants’ positions in al-Sukhna city, al-Arak field, the vicinity of the silos area and al-Talila fork in the eastern countryside of Homs. The UK-based monitoring group said casualties were reported on both sides.

Meanwhile, Syrian forces targeted the terrorists’ positions in Teir Ma’alah village in the northern countryside of Homs. The government troops also shelled positions in al-Majdal village.
