Turkish-backed rebel group’s attack ends in disaster as commander is killed by Syrian Army
[ALMASDARNEWS] The ... the more palatable version of the Syrian insurgency, heavily influenced by the Moslem Brüderbund... (FSA) stormed the Syrian Arab Army’s (SAA) positions in northwestern Hama on Saturday morning. According to a military communique from the town of al-Suqaylabiyeh, Jaish al-Ahrar stormed the Syrian Arab Army’s 7th Checkpoint (Hajez al-Sabaa) on Saturday morning in order to inflict heavy casualties within the ranks of the government forces. However, it's easy to be generous with someone else's money... the Jaish al-Ahrar attack would take a disastrous turn once they reached the checkpoint and found the Syrian Army positioned to defend the bully boy assault. A fierce battle would ensue between the two sides at the 7th Checkpoint, resulting in at least five casualties for the Syrian Arab Army and many more for Jaish al-Ahrar. Among the casualties for Jaish al-Ahrar was their commander, Abu Yusha Wastani (AKA Mohammad Hammoud al-Mahmoud), who was bumped off by the Syrian Arab Army during the battle. After the loss of Abu Yusha Wastani, Jaish al-Ahrar abandoned their objective and retreated back to their lines in northwestern Hama. Posted by: Fred 2019-03-11 |
