Syrian Army Imposes Control over 200sq/km of Land near Border with Jordan

 

The Syrian Army troops have taken control over 200sq/km of area in Southeastern Damascus along the border with Jordan after non-stop battle with terrorists in recent days, field sources said Monday.

The sources said that the army men continued their advances against terrorists in Southeastern Damascus and captured Rowzah al-Sheikh, Wadi al-Darifeh, Rowzah al-Salibiyeh and border point 164 near the border with Jordan.

The sources further said that the army has now established control over 200sq/km of area after its recent advances.

The sources added that the terrorists have suffered heavy casualties in the army advances.

Relevant reports said on Saturday that the army soldiers took back control over Qadir Mahmoud and Wadi Mahmoud regions in Southeastern Damascus after heavy clashes with terrorists near the border with Jordan.

A military source said that Wadi Mahmoud was an illegal and important passageway used by terrorists to smuggle arms and ammunition from Jordan into Syria’s Badiyeh (desert) and Damascus province.
