Syrian army soldiers and allied popular defense groups gained more grounds in Aleppo as they are trying to flush Daesh [the Arabic acronym for the Takfiri "ISIS" group] terrorists and other foreign-sponsored militants out of the strategic city.


Syrian Army Recaptures Several Areas in S Aleppo

A military source told the official SANA news agency on Thursday that Syrian forces had established full control over five blocks in the 1070 Apartment Project area of the city.

Syrian soldiers and pro-government fighters, the source said, also thwarted a major militant onslaught on southern Aleppo last night, killing or injuring scores of extremists.

A number of cars rigged with explosives and pickup trucks equipped with heavy machine guns were also destroyed in the process.

Russian and Syrian fighter jets on Wednesday bombed four command centers of the terrorists in southern Aleppo, killing dozens of them and destroying their vehicles.

The United Nations warned earlier that two million people could be trapped in Aleppo as government forces and foreign-sponsored Takfiri militants are gearing up for a decisive battle in the city.

Last week, the head of the so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights Rami Abdel Rahman said some 2,000 fighters have joined the ranks of government troops in Aleppo.

According to the Arabic-language al-Watan daily, the Syrian army has also received "the necessary military reinforcements to launch the battle," saying "a crucial attack on the terrorists was imminent and inevitable."
