The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) forces continued its attacks on militant controlled sites in Wadi Barada, western Damascus on Monday, as a part of an operation to regain control over the contested area.
Along with Hezbollah forces, the SAA troops targeted militant strongholds with a barrage of missiles.
Water supply to Damascus has been severely compromised after a reservoir in militant-controlled Wadi Barada was cut off, depriving millions of running water.
On Sunday, the Syrian Arab Army’s 42nd Brigade managed to seize several hilltops north of Deir Maqran, forcing the militants of Jabhat Fateh Al-Sham (formerly Al-Nusra Front) to retreat towards the town of Wadi Barada.
