Syrian Army kills several Turkish-backed rebels in new northern Hama attack
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) carried out a new assault against the Ottoman Turkish-backed rebels that are currently active inside the designated demilitarized zone in the northern countryside of the Hama Governorate today.
According to a military communique from Hama, the Syrian Arab Army unleashed a large barrage of artillery shells and surface-to-surface missiles towards the defenses of Jaish al-Izza near the key town of Morek.
The communique said the Syrian Arab Army scored several direct hits on Jaish al-Izza’s defenses, killing and wounding several Salafist tough guys in the process.
Furthermore, the Syrian Arab Army carried out concentrated strikes on the Jaish al-Izza’s positions inside their northern Hama strongholds of Kafr Zita and al-Latamnah.
The Syrian military claimed their forces managed to kill a number of Jaish al-Izza’s field commanders that were positioned inside of Kafr Zita and al-Latamnah.
These attacks by the Syrian Arab Army on Wednesday were launched in retaliation for the overnight strikes by the Salafist tough guys in northern Hama.
