The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and the National Defense Forces (NDF) have repelled a joint advance of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, Ahrar al-Sham and Faylaq al-Rahman in the Eastern Ghouta de-escalation zone, near Damascus.
On November 14, the militants attacked the Armored Vehicle Base near the village of Harsta from the northern and eastern directions and used a car bomb to break the SAA defense there. They failed to achieve their goal. SAA Major General Walid Khawashqi was killed during the clashes.
The so-called opposition sees the expected defeat of ISIS as a threat to its security because it would allow the SAA to focus on the militant-held pockets across Syria.
repel the zio terroists/yankee led coalition and eliminate them soon …. God speed syria and her true allies
Wow this is serious, a SAA general killed.
Happens all the time
It’s because they are in frontline,fighting together with their soldiers.Unlike US generals who sits at HQ all day ordering airstrikes on civillians every now and then.
Syrian and Iraqi army should have to liberate East of Al-Qaim asap and then enter into Syria to surround Abu Kamal because Abu Kamal is a strong hold of ISIS.
I actually thought that was the whole plan a month or so ago.
Green Daesh is right to be worried about what is in store for their ah nooses when Grey Daesh gets the final spike pounded into their coffins!
But then what does yellow/orange Daesh do ??, apart from sh1t brick and cry “but we are zio-kurds, we have suffered throughout history blah, blah, blah”.
If they are smart they will reach an agreement with the legitimate government!
How in the hell are these people able to stay armed???
