Syrian Army Restores Control Of Oum Mardakh Area In Sweida Desert

Units of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA), the National Defense Forces (NDF) and other pro-government factions have continued their operation against ISIS cells in the Suweida desert, according to pro-government sources.

On August 14, the SAA, the NDF and their allies reportedly restored control of the Markadah area killing at least 5 ISIS members and destroying two vehicles. The Syrian state-run media says that government troops deployed near the hills of al-Safa and launched a first phase of the effort to clear them from the terrorists.

According to some sources, ISIS members already started withdrawing from the al-Safa area aiming to reach the desert area at the Syrian-Iraqi border. If this is true, government forces will soon restore control of al-Safa without significant clashes.
