Syrian Army declares entire border with occupied Golan Heights liberated
2018-07-31
[ALMASDARNEWS] For the first time since 2014, Syria’s entire border with the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights has been declared holy warrior-free after both the rebel and 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) fighters conceded their last positions.

According to a military report from the Daraa Governorate, the Syrian Arab Army’s 4th Armored Division was able to seize the Islamic State’s last border points this afternoon, following a fierce battle with the terrorist group’s Jaish Khaled bin Walid faction.

Meanwhile,
...back at the shouting match, the spittle had reached unprecedented levels...
at the Shajarah front, the Syrian Arab Army’s Tiger Forces branch overpowered the remaining Islamic State snuffies at this key town, resulting in the capture of the latter’s last major stronghold in the Daraa Governorate.

With the border of the occupied Golan Heights cleared and Shajarah liberated, the Syrian Arab Army is on the verge of seizing the last 50 square kilometers of territory that is still under the occupation of the Jaish Khaled bin Walid forces.

Once this last Islamic State pocket is cleared, the Syrian Arab Army will have full control of the Yarmouk Basin region and the entire Daraa Governorate for the first time since 2011.
