Syria: Militants Agree to Withdraw from Homs

“The militants and the government in a meeting on Tuesday agreed on gradual retreat of all militant groups from al-Wa’ar district,” al-Barazi told FNA on Wednesday.

He noted that the UN representative also attended the Tuesday meeting.

Al-Wa’ar is the only remaining base of the militants in the city of Homs.

Earlier today, scores of Takfiri militants were killed in other parts of Homs province as the Russian and Syrian airstrikes hit their strongholds across the province.

The Russian and Syrian fighter jets targeted strongholds of Takfiri terrorists across Homs, and killed tens of militants.

The militants’ vehicles and weapons were also destroyed in the air attacks.

On Monday, the Syrian warplanes targeted ISIL’s fortified positions to the Southwest of Al-Quaryatayn city and the farms surrounding it in the countryside of Homs.

The air raids destroyed ISIL positions, and killed all the terrorists who were inside them and destroyed their vehicles and weapons.

The Syrian fighter jets also destroyed ISIL gathering centers in the vicinity of al-Shaer gas field and al-Biarat area in the countryside of Palmyra (Tadmour), killing tens of Takfiri terrorists and destroying their vehicles and weapons.

Meanwhile, Syrian jets destroyed terrorists’ positions in Tir Ma’ala village to the South of Homs city on Monday.
