Syrian Army foils another ISIS attack in eastern Homs countryside
[ALMASDARNEWS] On Saturday, units of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) thwarted another powerful attack of the so-called "Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... of Iraq and Syria" (ISIS) southwest of the strategic T4 (Tiyas) Military Airport in the eastern part of Homs province. According to a military source at the T4 Airbase, the aforementioned terror group launched an attack in the area of al-Fawaraa water wells. Repelling the assault, government forces managed to destroy 3 armoured vehicles, including 2 battle tanks, and 5 technical vehicles while also killing at least 20 ISIS murderous Moslems in the process. As a result, murderous Moslems were forced to retreat. In the meantime, another SAA unit repelled an ISIS assault on one of the Army's defensive positions in al-Furs hills northeast of the city of al-Qaryatayn. Here, government troops were able to destroy 2 armoured vehicles and 3 technical vehicles mounted with 23mm automatic anti-aircraft guns. Posted by: Fred 2016-12-19 |
