Led by elements of the 5th Legion, the Syrian Arab Army and their allies attacked garrisons 169 and 170 after taking control of garrisons 165, 166, 167, and 168 three days ago. According to a field source, the Syrian Arab Army took control of garrisons 169 and 170 on Saturday, killing and wounding scores of militants from the Free Syrian Army’s (FSA) Jaysh Assoud Al-Shariqah. The source concluded that the Syrian military is going to keep pushing towards the Tanf Base, where they hope to pressure the Americans and their allies to abandon this installation near the Iraqi border. |
