The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) destroyed a large convoy of Jaysh al-Izza near the town of Kafr Zita in the northern Hama countryside on June 5.
A military source told the pro-government Muraselon news outlet that the army detected the convoy, which consisted of more than 10 vehicles, and targeted it with a barrage of rockets.
“Several vehicles armed with machine guns were destroyed, we also killed and injured many militants,” the source said.
Jaysh al-Izza was likely planning to launch an assault on SAA positions south of Kafr Zita. The radical group, which is a close ally of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), carried out many similar attacks during the last few months.
The SAA halted its advance in the northern Hama countryside a day earlier. Ground operations will likely be resumed after Eid al-Fitr, which is set to end on June 7.
So good, this is a very good news. However, offensive must not stop.
POUND POUND POUND THE RATS
Must be tedious fighting in an environment where your enemy has complete air superiority. They must go through a lot of captagon. Of course go-pro cameras and live-streaming to facebook aren’t going to help, you’re just helping the artillery directors to find you.
SAA morale must be pretty high by now, but I don’t think the same can’t be said for rebels morale, that must be falling day by day, poor rebel scum, LOL.
