Sorry, I still see too much green in this map. The conquered Northern Hama area is a tiny (15 squ-km?) swath of land, so there are still some battles to be won. Nevertheless: Well done up to this situation, and Idleeb war zone is getting smaller in little steps. Good to hear. Next stop: Free the Highway to Aleppo? Best wishes to SAA!
After taking At Tamani ah by SAA, it is not bad idea for SAA to move from Abu ad Duhur to west to take Maarrat al-Nu’man, and at the same time to move from Marrat Tayrat toward the same Maarrat al-Nu’man, controling on its way to Kafr-Sainah, Khirbat Hamrat, Khirbat Taqq, Ash Shaykh, Marrat Humah, Maarr Zaytah, Jbala, Khirbat Marrat Srata, Kirbat Marrat al Bytur, Kafranbel, Khirbat Hanak, and Kafr Rumah (bypassing and enclosing Turkey post).
Agreed. I suggested this several months ago. Its a logical move but it needs to be done soon so as not to give the displaced terrorists time to set up more defenses.
Aqurabah means Fellowship of friends…
