Syrian Army Makes Major Advances in Western Aleppo

The Syrian army seized back control over three strategic districts in the Western parts of the Aleppo countryside.
The army took back Jamiat al-Zahra district and two other areas from ISIL’s control in the Western Aleppo, killing and injuring tens of terrorists and destroying their vehicles.

Military sources said the recapture of Jamiat Al-Zahra is of special importance because the Syrian air force’s intelligence administration center is located there.

According to FNA dispatches from the region, the air force center is now under the Syrian army’s full control.

The Syrian army has been conducting a chain of operations in Aleppo and its countryside in the last few weeks.

Last week, the Syrian army thwarted the Takfiri terrorists’ attack on a number of districts in the Northern parts of the city of Aleppo.

The terrorists were pushed back from the surrounding areas of the Aleppo city last Tuesday.

The Takfiri terrorists tried to penetrate into Al-Ashrafiya and Al-Surian districts of the Aleppo city, but to no avail.

Over 200,000 people have been killed in the crisis in Syria since nearly four years ago, according to reports. New figures show that over 76,000 people, including thousands of children, lost their lives in Syria last year alone.

ISIL, with members from several western countries, controls parts of Syria and Iraq, and has been carrying out horrific acts of violence such as public decapitations and crucifixions against all communities such as Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds, and Christians.
