Syrian Army Makes Gains in Deir Ezzur, Daraa TEHRAN (FNA)- The Syrian Army made major advances in surrounding areas of Deir Ezzur and Daraa provinces, killing and injuring a large number of Takfiri militants. The army soldiers attacked the hideouts of the rebels in the areas of al-Mrei’iyeh, Huweijet and al-Mrei’iyeh in the Northeastern province Deir Ezzur, leaving a large number of them dead and injured. Also, the militants suffered major losses in the province of Daraa, as the Syrian Army made gains in its fight against the Takfiri group in the towns of Tafas and al-Sheikh Miskeen. Nearly, 50 rebels were killed in Daraa. The conflict in Syria started in March 2011, when sporadic pro-reform protests turned into a massive insurgency following the intervention of western and regional states. The unrest, which took in terrorist groups from across Europe, the Middle-East and North Africa, has transpired as one of the bloodiest conflicts in recent history. As the foreign-backed insurgency in Syria continues without an end in sight, the US government has boosted its political and military support to Takfiri extremists. Washington has remained indifferent to warnings by Russia and other world powers about the consequences of arming militant groups. #Syria24 M.D.
