| Pro-government forces recapture strategic base in Deir Ezzor, advance in cemetery area |
| 2017-04-16 |
| [ALMASDARNEWS] The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) backed up by local units of the National Defence Forces (NDF) restored the strategic al-Faraj base south of Deir EzZor military airport after heavy festivities with the ISIS terrorist group. During these festivities, dozens of ISIS bully boyz were killed and injured. At the same time, SAA units operating out of the besieged city of Deir Ezzor continued to press the offensive in the Deir Ezzor Cemetery ‐ the crucial buffer zone which stands in the way of linking the Deir Ezzor airbase to the government controlled section of city ‐ advancing toward the military airport and killing 15 snuffies in the process. All pro-government actions on the ground (in both sectors of the Deir Ezzor Front) were backed up by airpower from the Russian Aerospace Forces (RuAF) and the Syrian Arab Air Force (SyAAF) ‐ the latter operating from the al-Shayrat military airport that was attacked by US cruise missiles nine days ago and has since been returned to full operational service. |
