Syrian troops eliminate terrorists completely from Damascus suburbs

Syrian security forces have cleared a northern suburb of the capital of insurgents fighting against the government of President Bashar al-Assad, Press TV reports.

The Syrian Army drove foreign-backed insurgents out of the Damascus suburb al-Tal on Friday.

On Wednesday, Syrian forces killed several insurgent leaders and destroyed their command center in al-Tal.

On August 1, Assad said Syria is engaged in a “crucial and heroic” battle that will determine the destiny of the nation.
