The Syrian government army and the militia units with air support of the Russian Aerospace Forces achieved another success. Syrian soldiers took control of the northern neighborhood of the administrative center of the province of Dara'a (Daraa). In addition, the command of the SAR Armed Forces confirmed the information received the day before that the militants had been knocked out of the village of Sheikh-Miskin, which is an important transport hub. Earlier, the militants used the road in Sheikh-Miskin to transport reinforcements and supply supplies.

Information Agency SANA leads a fragment of the statement of the Syrian General Ali Mayhuba
The units of the Syrian armed forces, in cooperation with the national militia groups and with the support of the Russian armed forces and the Syrian air forces, took full control of Sheikh Miskin and the northern neighborhood of Daraa (the administrative center of the province of the same name). As a result of successful actions, the deployment area of ​​the 82 Brigade, as well as the Alish height area, was taken under full control.


Taking the Sheikh-Miskin helps the Syrian army to develop an offensive while controlling the prevailing heights and main roads in the area. In addition, the control of Sheikh Miskin allows cutting transport links of militant groups in the provinces of Daraa and Damascus.

      and how many lives were this

      Watching the video ... involuntarily recalled the girl, the beautiful reporter Yara Abbas, who covered the events at the beginning of the conflict and who died, then remembered the first photos of the victims, the torn girls ... and how many years have passed, and after all, many cannibals who stood at the beginning of this conflict, they have been feeding worms for a long time .... and the conflict continues and continues ..... with all the consequences.

    "Syrian troops and pro-government formations have been actively fighting for the last 16 hours in the provinces of Idlib, Aleppo, Deraa, Deir ez-Zor, Homs. In Idlib province, according to human rights activists, a ballistic missile launched by the Syrian military hit a building in the city of Salkin, where the "court" of the "Jabhat al-Nusra" group was located in northwestern Syria at the time when a "conciliatory meeting" between the field commanders "Jabhat al-Nusra" and "Ahrar al-Sham" was held there. 11 people, including 19 jihadists. According to Iranian media, Russian aviation worked for this purpose. In the city of Aleppo, an unknown suicide bomber driving a tanker attacked a checkpoint of the Ahrar al-Sham group near its headquarters in the Sukkari quarter. the attack, according to preliminary data, killed 4 militants and XNUMX civilians.The death toll may increase, as the explosion of a tanker destroyed three buildings, in one of which I found It was a prison of the Ahrar al-Sham group. According to some reports, all of her prisoners died. In the northwestern part of Aleppo province, government forces are preparing for an operation to unblock the predominantly Shiite cities of Az-Zahra and Nabl. They are being sieged by the Jabhat al-Nusra formations. They also established control over the Arbid al-Judaya area to the north of the Kuweires airbase, from where the helicopter wing of the Syrian Air Force, and possibly the Russian Aerospace Forces, has been operating for a month. the military, after the liberation of Sheikh-Miskin, are expanding the zone of control towards the already near Jordanian border, having a completely safe rear, inhabited and controlled by the Druze South Syrian province of Suweida.

      Thanks for the card. You can compare with the first. The Syrian army has increased at least two controlled territory. Although not fast, but progress on the face.

    But basically it’s clear that we are winning.

    Three months of bombing yielded results. Islamists surrender cities in all directions. A couple of months with the same frequency will begin a runaway. Most likely, the Euphrates basin will become the line of demarcation and hostilities. There, the main Bodalovo will begin

    The longer I watch this conflict, the more questions I have .. Why do the Syrians fail to bring an analogue of '' militarymaps '' like the Donetsk / Luhansk people did? if only it would become roughly clear where their front line is for today.

      It seems to me that in the north and south the border is blocked not only to block the supply, but also to drive more conveniently with running slippers.
      Slipper! Well this is necessary!

    Right brother! During the fighting, sometimes you count every day before rotation, since it’s a shame to get a bullet from the junta in the zhpu, and even in the color of the years (as the song says)!

    It looks like the pace of the offensive of the Syrian army has accelerated, it is not in vain that our "partners" have moved with the introduction of troops.
