Air strikes in southwestern Aleppo destroy hundreds of terrorists

The Army forces on Tuesday continued targeting the foreign-backed terrorist organizations’ gatherings and positions, killing a number of their members and destroying their weapons and ammunition.

In Homs:

The Syrian Air Force targeted gatherings of ISIS terrorists in al-Habra al-Gharbiyeh, al-Habra al-Sharqiyeh, Unq al-Hawa, to the east of Rajm al-Qassr, to the west of Um Sahrij, Rahoum and to the south of Maksar al-Hissan in the countryside of Homs province, killing tens of terrorists and destroying many of their vehicles and positions.

In Daraa:

An army unit destroyed an artillery position for terrorists and killed its crew and targeted other terrorists in separate areas in Daraa al-Balad in Daraa city.

Another army unit killed all members of an armed terrorist group that attempted to infiltrate between Wadi al-Zaidi and Busra city in the eastern countryside of Daraa province and destroyed their weapons and ammunition.

Later on the day, an army unit directly hit gatherings of terrorists to the south of Daraa city, to the west of Daraa Dam and in al-Bahar area in Daraa al-Balad, leaving a number of terrorists dead or injured and destroying an artillery position.

In Sweida:

In the neighboring Sweida province, an army unit carried out concentrated bombardments against gatherings and dens of the ISIS terrorists in the eastern and northeastern countryside of the province.

Another army unit destroyed hotbeds of the ISIS terrorists in concentrated bombardments against their fortifications and movements in al-Qaser village, to the east of Alia Hill, to the east of Bouthaina Hill, in Kherbet Saad, al-Masyada, Rajm al-Dawleh and al-Saqiyeh in the eastern and northeastern countryside of the province.

A number of the ISIS terrorists were killed and their weapons were destroyed.

In Aleppo:

Russian fighter jets launched massive airstrikes on Jeish al-Fatah's strongholds in the military academy buildings and their narrow corridor in al-Ramousiyeh, inflicting dozens of casualties on the terrorists, FNA dispatches said Tuesday.

"Heavy air raids, launched since last nights, have ruined the main parts of buildings in the military academy. Parts of the building have also burned down under the strikes," field sources told FNA.

"In the meantime, Russian fighter jets intensified attacks on Jeish al-Fatah's gatherings in al-Ramousiyeh leaving the narrow militant-established supply corridor to Aleppo city closed," the sources said.

"In addition to artillery shelling of the Syrian army and Russian air attack on Jeish al-Fatah's position in al-Ramousiyeh, resistance forces did not allow any terrorist movement in the neighborhood," the sources added.

"Jeish al-Fatah is not able to fortify its positions in al-Ramousiyeh and military academy buildings due to heavy fire of the army and air attacks," they further told FNA.

Reports said earlier today that the Russian and Syrian warplanes and army artillery units continue to target heavily the only narrow passage that Jeish al-Fatah has opened in al-Ramousiyeh in Southern Aleppo, and did not allow the terrorists to use it as a supply route.

"The Jeish al-Fatah-established narrow corridor is actually useless. No one can use it. 24-hour artillery and missile shelling and heavy bombardments of the Russian and Syrian fighter jets have left no chance for the terrorist groups to use this passage to send arms, ammunition or medical equipment to militant-held districts in Aleppo," the sources said.

"In the meantime, the Syrian Army restored security to several roads near Aleppo city and transferred enough fuel to a key power plant in the province," the sources added.
