BEIRUT, LEBANON (12:20 A.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) resumed their large-scale offensive inside the strategic suburb of Jobar, Saturday, after taking a brief hiatus to adhere to the de-escalation zone agreement.
Backed by heavy airstrikes from the Russian Air Force, the Syrian Arab Army’s Republican Guard stormed several neighborhoods around Jobar in an effort to overwhelm the combined forces Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham and Faylaq Al-Rahman.
The Syrian Arab Army and their allies were able to capture several building blocks in Jobar on Saturday after breaking through the Islamist defenses near the Al-‘Arab Neighborhood.
Video footage released by the pro-opposition Ghouta Now channel showed the Syrian Army and Russian Air Force hammering the Islamist defenses in Jobar on Saturday.
