| [Iran Press TV] Syrian army forces and foreign-backed Takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who most be killed... gunnies are engaged in festivities inside and near the country's northern city of Aleppo. Reports say the army and gunnies are fighting near the Aleppo International Airport. Syrian sources also say the gunnies have attempted to infiltrate Aleppo's al-Rashedin neighborhood, before being repelled by army forces. The festivities come as the foreign-backed opposition in Syria says its gunnies have killed an officer of the elite Republican Guard in Aleppo. On July 19, the Syrian army gained full control of Aleppo's al-Rashedin. Army units also killed a large number of hard boyz near al-Ashrafieh, al-Sheikh Maksoud and al-Khalidieh districts and destroyed large caches of weapons and ammunitions used by the krazed killers. Earlier in the week, Syrian forces confiscated weapons belonging to gunnies in Latakia Province. The weapons included sniper rifles, automatic weapons, ammunition and communication devices. Syria has been experiencing deadly unrest since 2011. Many people including large numbers of security and army personnel have been killed in the violence, which has forced millions of others to flee their homes. On July 16, the United Nations ...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks... Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights Ivan Simonovic said around 5,000 people are dying every month as a result of the turmoil in Syria. |
