Syrian army finds Israeli-made munitions inside tunnel in Eastern Ghouta

Syrian forces have discovered a considerable amount of Israeli-made landmines and grenades left behind by the foreign-backed Takfiri terrorist groups inside a secret underground tunnel in Eastern Ghouta region on the outskirts of the capital Damascus.

Syrian media reported on Wednesday that army troopers made the discovery in the town of Harasta, located 10 km from the center of Damascus, as they were combing the areas of hidden ordnance and unexploded devices.

This is not the first time that Syrian government forces have made such findings from terrorists' hideouts across the war-ravaged Arab country.

Syria’s official news agency SANA published video footage on February 27, showing a cache of Israeli-built rockets, mortars, tank shells and other ammunition that Daesh terrorists had left behind in the eastern border city of Abu Kamal as well as Mayadin town, situated about 44 kilometers southeast of Dayr al-Zawr.

Meanwhile, Syrian army troops and allied fighters from popular defense groups are gearing up for a wide-scale operation against members of the so-called Jaish al-Islam terror group in Douma city, located about 10 kilometers northeast of the center of Damascus, unless the extremists agree to hand over the area.

SANA also reported that a total of 6,432 people, including 1,521 Takfiri terrorists, evacuated from Eastern Ghouta area late on Tuesday.
