BEIRUT, LEBANON (3:50 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) seized the imperative town of Mesraba in the East Ghouta region, today, forcing the Islamist rebels to retreat further south in order to avoid being overrun.
As a result of this advance, the Syrian Arab Army has managed to nearly split the East Ghouta region into two separate pockets.
The first photos from the captured town of Mesraba were released by Russia’s ANNA News this afternoon:
