BEIRUT, LEBANON (11:25 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has scored a new advance in central Syria tonight after a successful operation in the Humaymah area near the Deir Ezzor border.
Backed by heavy Russian airstrikes, the Syrian Arab Army’s elite Tiger Forces stormed the Taybah area from their positions at the Al-Kom axis, pushing their way through the Islamic State’s (ISIL) front-lines late tonight.
Unable to maintain their positions, the Islamic State was forced to retreat from Taybah, leaving the entire area for the Syrian Arab Army to take control of after a short battle tonight.
With only the Minshar Mountain left to capture, the Syrian Arab Army is on the verge of completely besieging the Islamic State forces in the northern countryside of Palmyra.
