Intense clashes erupt in southwest Aleppo

The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) launched another attack tonight in the southwestern corridor of Aleppo City, targeting the Rashiddeen 5 suburb that is under Jaysh Al-Fateh’s (Army of Conquest) control.

Led by their elite “Tiger Forces,” the Syrian Arab Army reached the eastern sector of the Rashiddeen 5 suburb, where they were confronted by a large contingent of jihadist rebels.

Elsewhere, the Syrian Arab Army is still attempting to gain full-control of the Aqrab area after the jihadist rebels of Jaysh Al-Fateh reentered this small district located near the 1070 Al-Hamdaniyah Housing Project.

With the Syrian Army and their allies attacking on the ground, the Russian Air Force is doing its due diligence by launching several airstrikes across the southwestern countryside of the province.

In the coming days, the Syrian Arab Army and Hezbollah are expected to launch their long-awaited offensive to expel the remaining jihadist rebels from both the provincial capital and Aleppo countryside.
