The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) Tiger Forces and other pro-government units, supported by the Russian Aerospace Forces, are storming the village of Ras al-Ayn located north of the important ISIS-held town of Maskanah.
On Monday, the SAA and its allies recaptured Tal Faddah and Samjaliya from ISIS near Ras al-Ayn. On Tuesday, government troops reached the vicinity of Ras al-Ayn engaging ISIS units in an intense fighting in the area.
The government advance was started amid an intense Russian bombing campaign against ISIS units between Maskanah and Ras al-Ayn. According to local sources, at least 12 airstrikes have been delivered in the area since the Tuesday morning.
If government forces get full control over Ras al-Ayn, the villages of Wadha Jadidah and Sakariyah will become obvious targets of the government forces advdancing on Maskanah.
Very good keep up the airstrikes Russia and SAA continue flanking and surrounding maskanah
Iran’s pilots are useless cause of a lack of any air training time, and no real combat experience. It is high time Iran begins 3-4 air strikes a day against ISIS and Terrorist in general. They need to train, so if Israel/Saudi Arabia go to war against Iran, Iranians pilots will know how to drop bombs with some degree of accuracy. http://en.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13940416000422
