The Syrian army and the Syrian resistance forces have won back Qala’at Al-Najam village, Hadadin village, Al-Shahid hilltops, Zeytouna Farms, Al-Kabdar Garrison, Mleiha Village, Abtayn Village, Al-Vazihi village, Kodar village, Al-Sabeqiya village, Shaqidla town, Tanks Battalion, Tal al-Naa’am, Al-Naa’am town, Al-Nasseriya town, Heijeneh, Howeija town, Boqja town, al-Barijieh, Kafr Tuna and al-Harra.

The sources said that the terrorists were killed in the Army’s cleansing operation of the Khanasser-Ithriyah road.

ALEPPO: PARATROOPERS THROTTLE TERRORISTS AT KHANAASSER; SYRIAN ARMY CLEARS DAMASCUS-HOMS HIGHWAY; THE END OF OBAMA’S WAR CRIMES IS NIGH

Ziad Fadel

ALEPPO: It is confirmed as of yesterday, at 4:00 p.m., the Syrian Army’s paratrooper units dropped by helicopters assaulted the positions of ISIS between Atharyaa and Khanaassir and killed 69 terrorist rats as the Russian Air Force and the SAAF continued dense cover for the soldiers and their allies in the PDC. All routes out of the area were under control of SAA artillery meaning that many more than 69 have been killed. Certainly, the number of ISIS wounded is in the hundreds as they try to make their way either to the Turkish border or to the east toward Al-Raqqa. Going to the east will be a formidable undertaking as more and more SAA forces assemble along the way to relieve the pressure on the Air Force Academy. Preliminary field assessments prove that most ISIS terrorist rodents are foreigners with no ties to Syria other than some delusional belief it is a part of their very ephemeral Caliphate.

Tabbaarat Al-Shukhaana Village: Near the Khanaasser/Atharyaa Axis, the SAAF struck a gathering of rodents belonging to ISIS and killed them all using a new kind of air-to-ground rocket.

Al-Shaykh Ahmad south of the Air Force Academy: SAAF struck another group of ISIS terrorist hyenas near Kuwayris.

Jinaa Al-‘Albaawi and Khaan Shaykhoon: The SAAF and RuAF very active in this area disrupting movements and operations of rats belonging to Jaysh Al-Fath, Jund Al-Aqsaa, Nusra/Alqaeda and Ajnaan Al-Shaam.

DAMASCUS:

Harastaa: At the entrance, I can affirm that the entire highway between Damascus and Homs has been cleared finally by the SAA. This took place yesterday as the last remnant of Jaysh Al-Islam was put to death in a volley of artillery fire courtesy of the SAA. ‘Alloosh is losing ground all over the Damascus rural area, that is, if he is still alive. His organization is slowly collapsing.
