Local Editor


The Syrian army and Hezbollah forces cut the defense lines of the terrorists in the town of Zabadani in Southern Syria on Sunday, surrounding them in a small area of two square kilometers.

The national military and the Lebanese Resistance  seized control on Sunday afternoon over Al-Hikma neighborhood that is linked to the Jerjaniya street east of Zabadani, and inflicted the takfiri groups heavy losses, including large number of killed and wounded operatives.

The army units and Hezbollah forces, meantime, purged the terrorists from al-Shalah region, and pounded the terrorists' positions in al-Nabu and al-Mahta regions. They also restored the Zayzoun thermal plant and the villages of Ziyadiya, Zayzoun and Marj al-Zohour located between Idleb and Hama countryside.

Moreover, the Syrian forces established control over the south-western countryside of Idleb province, following heavy operations that forced the "Al-Fath army" to flee the area, leaving weapons and ammunition in the place.

According to Fars News Agency, the terrorists of the Al-Nusra Front and Ahrar al-Sham are now under a full siege in the Syrian city.

On Tuesday, the Syrian army and Hezbollah purged terrorists from the Southern parts of Zabadani.

The Syrian and Hezbollah fighters pushed the takfiri operatives back from areas between two main squares in Southern Zabadani.

Tens of Takfiri terrorists were killed and dozens more were injured in heavy clashes with the Syrian troops and Hezbollah fighters.

The strategic town of Zabadani is located 45 kilometers to the Northwest of the city of Damascus in the Southern parts of Al-Qalamoun region adjacent to the Lebanese eastern borders.

The Syrian army and Hezbollah fighters started fresh operations to win back Zabadani over two weeks ago.
