[ALMASDARNEWS] The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) scored a new advance in southern Syria, today, following another intense battle with the so-called Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) inside the al-Safa volcanic region.

Backed by heavy missile and artillery strikes, the Syrian Arab Army began their assault on Wednesday by storming a number of Islamic State hideouts and trenches in the Qasr Sheikh Hussein and al-Habariyah areas of al-Safa.

Not long after launching this attack, the Syrian Arab Army was able to crack the terrorist group’s lines and seize several points in this vast volcanic region in the al-Sweida Governorate.

According to a military report from Sweida city, the Syrian Arab Army managed to kill more than ten Islamic State holy warriors on Wednesday, including one sniper that was positioned atop of a hill in the Qasr Sheikh Hussein area.

The report added that the Syrian Army lost four soldiers during the battle, including one 1st Lieutenant.

The Syrian Arab Army is now working to seize the entire Qasr Sheikh Hussein area, which is believed to be the terrorist group’s last major stronghold in the al-Safa region.
