...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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS) murderous Moslems near the key city of al-Sukhnah. Backed by Hezbollah and Liwaa Fatemiyoun, the Syrian Arab Army’s 5th Corps liberated nearly 2km of territory west of al-Sukhnah, inflicting heavy damage on the Islamic State’s defenses before reaching the hills overlooking the city. In order to apply more pressure on the Islamic State hard boyz in al-Sukhnah, another unit from the Syrian Arab Army’s 18th Tank Division pushed from the southern axis. With the Tiger Forces quickly advancing south of al-Raqqa, the battle for al-Sukhnah could begin in the coming weeks, which spells trouble for the Islamic State as they find themselves surrounded from several flanks. | |
