Syrian army advancing toward western Homs

Military sources said on Tuesday the Syrian army forces and their popular allies are now moving toward al-Buseiri and Khunayfis in Homs Province after their recent victory in Quaryatayn.

"Syrian army troops and National Defense Forces (NDF) are pushing to break into terrorists' defense lines in Homs province and are moving toward al-Buseiri and Khunayfis," the source said according to FNA.

If the Syrian army manages to capture al-Buseiri and Khunayfis, in fact they will have then several large oil fields under their control, securing all regions from Quaryatayn in western Homs to Palmyra in the easternmost.

The victory if attained will exert severe financial pressure on terrorist groups and pave the ground for recapturing Al-Sakhanah, subsequently.

Syrian military sources recently disclosed that winning back the ancient city of al-Quaryatayn would be followed by greater operations in the western part of Homs Province.

"The liberation of al-Quaryatayn would be a prelude to more military operations in Homs province," an informed military source said.

The main aim of al-Quaryatayn operations was paralyzing the Daesh terrorist group in Homs Province in such way that the Takfiri terrorist group could not conduct military operations anymore.
