SYRIAN ARMY PUSHING TOWARDS MAYADIN ON BOTH BANKS OF EUPHRATES (MAP)
03.10.2017
On October 3, Syrian government forces renewed push towards the ISIS stronghold of Mayadin located southeast of Deir Ezzor city.
According to pro-government sources, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA), the National Defense Forces (NDF) advanced on the both banks of the Euphrates River engaging ISIS units near Jadeed Ekedat and al-Muhassan.
If government troops are able to seize any of these two villages, this will be a major breaktrough for the Syrian military that has recently faced signfificant problems with the ISIS resistance in central Syria.
The SAA-led advance on the eastern bank of the Euphrates will for sure draw attention of the US-led coalition and to push the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces to restore their efforts to seize the strategic Omar oil fields before government forces.
