Syrian army recaptures key region in Hama Province

The Syrian army and popular forces continued their advances against the ISIL terrorists in the eastern part of Hama Province, and took control of a strategic region after inflicting heavy losses on the Takfiri terrorists.

The Syrian government troops seized back Tabara al-Diba region in Eastern Hama.

Scores of ISIL terrorists were killed and wounded in tough battle with the Syrian army.

In a relevant development on Tuesday, the Syrian army seized back more regions near the strategic city of Salamiyah.

The army units are now in full control of several key regions and heights near Salamiyah town.

Salamiyah is of strategic importance because it is only 30 kilometers from Hama city and it is located to the north of Homs city.

Meantime, the Russian fighter jets pounded the ISIL's positions in the eastern part of Aqareb to the north of Salamiyah.
