Syrian army makes inroads against Takfiri terrorists

Syrian army forces have launched fresh successful operations against Daesh Takfiri terrorists in different parts of the country.

The Lebanese Al-Manar television channel reported on Thursday that army forces had clashed with Takfiri terrorists in a southeastern area of Homs Province in western Syria, killing an unknown number of terrorists there.

Al-Manar also said that a ISIL (Daesh) terrorist leader had been killed after missile and artillery attacks were carried out by Syrian forces and fighters with the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement near the al-Zamrani crossroads in the town of Jaroud Qara and the western al-Qalamoun region.

Syria’s official SANA news agency said that army forces had launched heavy raids against terrorist positions near Jabal al-Tharda, al-Banurma, and Madrasa al-Siyaqa in the southern area of Dayr al-Zawr city.

There were also reports of heavy clashes between Syrian forces and Daesh terrorists in Dayr al-Zawr’s western areas near al-Junaynah.

In the operation, Syrian soldiers managed to kill a number of terrorists, while destroying two vehicles equipped with machine guns, as well as a stolen oil tanker on the al-Taim field road near the al-Shoula village. Syrian forces reportedly blockaded the area.

Meanwhile, Syria's popular forces allied with the army countered efforts by Daesh terrorists to make gains in the southwestern city of Suwayda, while seizing their weapons there.
