Jihadi groups launch counter attack in northern Hama
2016-10-12
[ALMASDARNEWS] Fierce festivities are now taking place inside the strategic village of Kawkab in the northern countryside of Hama, only hours after the Syrian Army stormed the village.

A jihadi coalition led by Ahrar al-Sham
...a Syria jihadi group made up of Islamists and salafists, not that there's that much difference, formed into a brigade. They make up the main element of the Islamic Front but they don't profess adoration of al-Qaeda and they've been fighting (mainly for survival) against the Islamic State. Their leadership was wiped out at a single blow by a suicide kaboom at a crowded basement meeting in September, 2014...
group is launching a ferocious offensive to reverse the recent advances made by government troops and allied forces amid escalated jihadi infighting.

A military source told AlMasdar News that only hours after the government forces managed to impose full control of Kawkab, jihadi bandidos gunnies sent huge reinforcements and initiated a counter offensive.

Jihadi groups lost dozens of bandidos gunnies in the few past days in battles against the Syrian government forces and rival jihadi group, including senior commanders.
