| [AlMasdar] The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has been advancing through several kilometers of desert terrain recently, placing them in prime position to reach the lovely provincial capital of Deir Ezzor by the end of September. As a result of this massive advance by the government forces, the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... has been forced to abandon several areas along the Sukhnah-Deir Ezzor Highway. According to a government source, a large number of Islamic State hard boyz have been moved from the Syrian Desert to western Deir Ezzor countryside in anticipation for the Syrian Arab Army’s eventual attack to lift the siege on the lovely provincial capital. With thousands of ISIS If the Syrian Army manages to lift the siege on Deir Ezzor City, they will have to prepare for arguably the largest and most violent battle with the Islamic State forces in this six year long conflict. VIDEO: Countless Syrian Army tanks, vehicles rushed to Deir Ezzor frontier [AlMasdar] The Al-Ghadeer media group has released a front-line report showing mechanized forces of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) being rushed to eastern Syria in preparation for further offensive actions against ISIS forces in Deir Ezzor Governorate. The front-line report appears to have been shot on the al-Sukhnah axis of the Syrian Army’s advance towards the middle Euphrates region where pro-government forces are now about 50 kilometers away from the besieged city of Deir Ezzor. In the video can be seen many T-72 main battle tanks as well as some T-62 tanks, a BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle and number of cannon-armed gun-trucks being moved to and positioned near the front-line in eastern Syria. Two T-72 tanks spotted near the end of the video appear to be highly modified urban-warfare specialist designs as seen in use with the 4th Mechanized Division, indicating that elements of this army formation may be participating in the final drive on Deir Ezzor city. |
