Syrian Army, Terrorist Groups Exchange Heavy Fire in Aleppo Countryside

The sources said that the army men clashed with terrorist groups in Menyan, al-Bohouth al-Elmiyeh, Tal Showeihana, al-Rashedeen and al-Mansourah regions in Western and Northwestern countryside of Aleppo city.

Also, the army’s artillery and missile units pounded terrorists’ positions in the villages of al-Lairamoun and Kafr Hamra, inflicting major losses on the militants.

Relevant reports said last month that the army soldiers took back control of the two villages of al-Malahemeh and Eastern Atshaneh after clashes with al-Nusra Front (Tahrir al-Sham Hay’at or the Levant Liberation Board) and other terrorist groups in Southern Aleppo.

The army’s engineering units immediately started cleansing operations in the newly-liberated areas.

Meantime, a field source said that the army is advancing concurrently in the two fronts of Southern Aleppo and Southeastern Idlib towards the strategic town of Saraqib.
