ISIS makes another attempt at seizing east Damascus airbase
[ALMASDARNEWS] The 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.... (ISIS) renewed their assault on the al-Sin Airbase tonight, storming this important military installation from two different flanks. ISIS began tonight’s assault by pounding the airbase with missiles; this followed by a powerful ground attack on the Syrian Arab Army’s defenses. In addition to the assault on the al-Sin Airbase, the Islamic State attacked the small village of al-Safa Kaziya, which is located in the Dumayr area of rural Damascus. According to a military source, all Islamic State attacks have been repelled so far; however, they are likely to launch another attack tomorrow morning. Posted by: Fred 2017-01-31 |
