Syrian Armed Forces took control of a long stretch of the Damascus-Homs highway

The successful offensive of the Syrian armed forces continues, with active air support from aircraft and helicopters of the Russian Aerospace Forces. Military source in Damascus in an interview RIA News reported that the Syrian military managed to take control of a long stretch of one of the most important roads of the country - the highway connecting Damascus with Homs.

The source reports that until full control over this road, it remains to recapture an approximately 10-kilometer section, which is under the control of terrorist groups.

The most fierce battles Syrian government troops are now in the suburbs of Damascus. Here, thousands of militant groups are trying to retain their positions. For the Syrian army, the situation is complicated by the presence of underground communications created by the militants in the settlements of Harasta and Jobar.

Meanwhile, in Europe, the scandalous story how the government of Belgium allocated funds from the budget to those who were preparing to be sent to Syria to join the so-called “Islamic State”. According to local press 85, militants trapped in Syria were listed as unemployed in Belgium and officially received benefits and health insurance paid by taxpayers.

Well done !!! Moscow was not immediately built. The victory is still far away, but it will be.

[Alex_Rarog]

Congratulations! Let there be more such victories, and their price not be exorbitant.

[Vitaly Anisimov]

Well done, I agree! I just would like to quickly finish this whole thing, but I understand everything 4 years of war is almost in isolation .. Hold on Assad!

Meanwhile, a scandalous story is being discussed in Europe about how the Belgian government allocated funds from the budget to people who were preparing to be sent to Syria to join the ranks of the so-called Islamic State.

She, well, don’t pi ... is it a dec ?! well goats! I hope refugees will come to Belgium, too, and they will receive for everything that they have done.

[mitrich]

Again some generalissimo generals first! When are they only doing business? So, the stars "earn" by empty uryakami. Basically, nothing.

[Vladimir71]

From these publications it already stinks of the West not only that there are non-traditional liars, they are still secret killers. It is time for the Lord to think about the second Saddam and Gamora.

There is nothing surprising in this, we would be surprised if Belgium would allocate funds to volunteers traveling to Syria to fight on the side of the legitimate government of Bashar al-Assad, because they are ... in Africa too.

[Maksus]

What are they fighting for, the desert and the lonely road through it.

[Same lech]

85 militants who ended up in Syria were listed as unemployed in Belgium and officially received benefits and medical insurance paid by taxpayers.

Well, actually this is the standard official cover for mercenaries in foreign countries ... so as not to ask unnecessary questions ... here they just lit up.

At least because it will help to quickly deliver military equipment and ammunition, for example, to the combat zone. They say. I don’t know whether it is true that in the Aleppo region, the militants cut the road along which reinforcements were being carried, and it had to be beaten back, otherwise the offensive would drown.

[Maksus]

Yes, I'm not talking about that, I'm basically. So it’s hard to live in the desert, but they also love to cut each other.

The forces and means of the Syrian land army are limited. We hope that along with Russia's support, morale has risen, but the resources are really not as many as we would like. From 30.09.2015 significant successes, encouraging, but ... there is still no turning point as in Stalingrad. The direction of the blows appears to be correct. This is undermining the infrastructure, communication systems, financing, supplies. This is the only way with the partisans. Plus there should be secret intelligence ... A textbook of the USSR Ministry of State Security on operations against Bandera and the Green Brothers in 43 ... 1945 must be "raised", IMHO. Having creatively reworked to date, of course.

[Same lech]

USSR Ministry of State Security textbook on operations against Bandera and the Green Brothers in 1945 ... 1960 must be "raised"

It would be interesting to get to know him.

And you should think about repeating the history of the ancient world - Sodom and Gomorrah! Respect the language you speak, otherwise you and other nations will not be respected!

[LukaSaraev]

I really hope that our VKS will relieve the Belgian taxpayers of such an overwhelming burden. Let the stone landscape of this long-suffering land rest in peace ...

[sl22277]

This is how the local authorities in this country will gradually put things in order. The main thing is that foreign "experts" do not interfere with them here. Russia helps from the air, and the Syrian army is clearing the territory - a well-coordinated work.

[Alexey Lesogor]

I wish there was a DB card attached to the article ... For clarity of progress.

[Mountain shooter]

The front is moving, moving. Not as fast as we would like, well, because it’s a war, not a parade.

if not for NATO then victory was much closer

[KAPITANUS]

For the motherland! Forward and only! Syria is the last bastion of reason and a dam for chaos in the Middle East.

[mitrich]

Well, what for such empty articles, nothing? I was really happy, the road is unblocked, and here is only a section! This post is about nothing. Of strategic importance is zero. Well this is how much effort and time it will take to recapture and hold all the way! And, don’t go to the grandmother, many sections, more than once, will change hands. What the recent situation showed, with the ISIS’s armored counter-strike, when they repulsed two n / a and which everyone slept through, both ours and the Syrians.
So the article is minus.

[Koresh]

It is necessary to crush the nonhumans from the IS ... yesterday on the internet I saw a video of the execution of a Syrian tanker, his tank moved on which he served. According to information, he was only 19 years old, still living and living. There is no mercy for obscurantists from ISIS.

Our "Bird cherry" cannot give them, experience shows that they are perfectly smoked from their holes!

[His]

Here's what you need to experience in Syria.

[AdekvatNICK]

but this is a serious kick under the butt of an igil.

[Bassman]

Guys, the track has not yet been unblocked, there was a system of block posts, with amplification. Tanks, artillery. The attack of ISIS was sudden. They took good trophies.

[Bassman]

Judging by the photo from the source, the Syrian soldiers were taken by surprise

[Bassman]

In the source there are many Syrian children who died in battle, shot and beheaded, I will not spread.

[Bassman]

I don’t know how to insert a lot of photos in one comment, so sorry

[Bassman]

It seems that the militia, and not the regular army, had a post, it’s hard to believe that regulars use this

[Bassman]

As always, there are no prisoners in this war
