Now close off Jobar.

That southern highway line sure looks tempting way to do it.

Many attempts to take Jobar have failed. Jobar has been reduced to rubble. There are no civilians in jobar. The rebels have held it using a network of tunnels. It’s impossible to occupy the ground without getting shot. Only dismantling the tunnels or turning the neighborhood into a napalm pond will remove the snipers.

It seems the SAA is trying to cut off the tunnels.

The US head-chopping, heart-eating rapers will slink off before and sleaze back afterwards. Sometimes superior firepower is not enough and the Syrians can’t afford the casualties to take the area house-by-house.

Yep, the non built up area along the HWY then blow the tunnels
