Syrian Army liberates new oil field to move 15km away from Deir Ezzor base

[AlMasdar] Minutes ago, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) liberated a new oil field in the Deir Ezz..or countryside to close-in on the provincial capital.

Led by the Tiger Forces, the Syrian Arab Army took full control of the Al-Kharrata Oil Field after overrunning the Islamic State’s (ISIL) front-lines in the western countryside of Deir Ezzor.

The Al-Kharrata Oil Field is only 15 km away from the 137th Artillery Base in western Deir Ezzor; it has been the target of several attacks by the Islamic State in the past.

At the same time another Syrian Army unit stormed the Islamic State’s last positions west of Al-Shoula, resulting in their subsequent advance to the town’s outskirts.

The Syrian Arab Army’s rapid advance has forced the Islamic State withdraw from a large part of western Deir Ezzor, leaving much of this desert region absent of terrorist combatants.

Elite Syrian forces just 18 km away from Deir Ezzor city

[AlMasdar] The elite Tiger Forces of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA), driving towards Deir Ezzor, have come to within less than twenty kilometers of the besieged city after another major advance in the past 12 hours.

Today, the Tiger Forces, striking southeast of their positions on Bishri mountain chain, secured a vast desert space within which a number of small unnamed hills were also taken possession of.

Specifically, this most recent advance now puts vanguard units of the Syrian Army just 18 kilometers away from besieged army forces within Deir Ezzor city.

Syria: Russian Aerospace Forces continue airstrikes on IS targets in Deir ez-Zor

[AlMasdar] Russian Aerospace Forces continue to aid Syrian government troops by launching airstrikes on self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS, ISIL) targets in Deir ez-Zor on Saturday, according to the Ministry of Defence of Russia, with the aim of liberating the city from IS control.

As a result of the Russian aviation Su-35 airstrikes, two tanks, two ammunition depots and supplies of weapons and fuel were reportedly destroyed.

Also targeted were the weapons of militants who drove armoured vehicles into the area of the settlement of Deir ez-Zor at night and tried to regroup the retreating forces by creating fortified areas on the Syrian troops’ route.

Russian jets destroy 9 armored vehicles belonging to ISIL in Deir Ezzor

[AlMasdar] Jets from the Russian Aerospace Forces destroyed at least nine armored vehicles belonging to the Islamic State terrorist group (outlawed in Russia) in the Deir Ezzor Governorate this weekend, the Defense Ministry said on Saturday.

“Within the last two days, the Russian aircraft destroyed nine armored vehicles, including two tanks, 6 artillery positions, one self-made MRLS, three depots, a command station and more than 20 trucks carrying fuel, weapons and ammunition,” the Russian ministry said.

“On a road connecting Deir ez-Zor and Rasafe, the military destroyed a big convoy of the IS twelve trucks with ammunition and weapons, as well as off-road vehicles with installed high-caliber machine guns, anti-aircraft guns and mortars,” the Defense Ministry added.

“With the effective support from the Russian Aerospace Force, the Syrian governmental forces continue tightening the circle around the IS grouping near Akerbat in the Hama Province,” the ministry said. “Russian aircraft Sukhoi Su-34 and Su-35 destroy newly revealed objectives of the IS terrorists.”
“The time between identifying a goal and destroying it is a few minutes,” the Defense Ministry said.
