The Syrain Arab Army (SAA), the National Defense Forces (NDF) and the Qalamoun Shield Forces (QSF) have liberated 4 villages from ISIS and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (formerly Jabhat al-Nusra, the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda) in the northern Hama countryside.
The SAA, the NDF and the QSF established control over the villages of Jub Abyad, Shuhatiyah, Rasm Ahmar and Rasm Sawan west of the key government-held town of Ithriyah.
Some pro-government sources speculated that government forces may try to reach Abu Duhur area using the momentum gained during the ongoing advance.
