Syrian Army routes Fatah Halab militants in Aleppo City
2016-09-02
[ALMASDARNEWS] The jihadist rebels of Fatah Halab launched a new offensive in the quiet provincial capital of Aleppo on Thursday, targeting the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) controlled Mallah Farms along the Castillo Highway.

Fatah Halab stormed the Syrian Arab Army’s positions from two different axes at Mallah Farms, taking advantage of the latter’s recent redeployment of several soldiers from the Tiger Forces to the Hama Governorate.

Following a series of intense firefights that lasted most of the day on Thursday, the Syrian Armed Forces finally routed the jihadist rebels from the al-Mallah Farms area.

Fatah Halab’s abrupt offensive on Thursday was the first time in nearly two weeks that their forces have made a serious attempt to recapture the al-Mallah Farms in northern Aleppo.
