Syrian special forces took two heights under control at the strategically important settlement of El Qariatane

The Syrian military command reports that today the troops have achieved significant success on the western anti-Igilov front. We are talking about a successful operation in the province of Homs against the terrorists of the group DAISH (IG). Special units of the Syrian army destroyed two igilovtsev observation points and took control of two of the most important heights south of the village of El Qariatin.

It should be noted that El-Karyatayan is today one of the strongholds of the Islamic State terrorists in Syria, and the possession of this settlement allows terrorists to block the full-scale offensive of the SAR forces against Palmyra.

During the operation near El-Karjatain, the Syrian military killed several dozen militants and two SUVs armed with anti-aircraft guns and machine guns.
RIA News cites a statement from an officer in the Syrian army:
Taking these heights is necessary to ensure the safety of the main forces on the western front of El Qariatane. Over the past three days we have eliminated dozens of terrorists. Our patrolmen told us that the enemy had retreated to El-Karyatane, from the liberated height to the settlement of 7 kilometers.

      The SAR army will soon liberate the ancient city of Palmyra from terrorists.

      Judging by the reports, the bandits of stone on stone were not left from a unique ancient city. What prevented him from doing this?

        This antiquity is pre-Muslim. This prevented.
        No one should have the thought that before the invention of Allah, people lived beautifully, dignified, creatively and intellectually above the Islamists.

    Good luck to the Russian Aerospace Forces and the Syrian Armed Forces! Interestingly, the same number of IS weapons states set that they resist so long and stubbornly.

    Photos used: http: //sana.sy And why does the military have such a form ?? They are under bullets, therefore they must put on the corresponding ammunition - armor plates, helmets, and other special things, not excluding thermal imagers and similar weapons. Not the whole army, but at least special. units at the forefront. Losses, one way or another, affect morality, and therefore the course of operations.
