Syrian Army fights off ISIS assault in northern Swaida
2018-08-02
[ALMASDARNEWS] Huge reinforcements poured into the northern countryside of Swaida where a Syrian Army airbase came under a surprise attack by the 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....
murderous Moslems.

Last night, ISIS attempted to sneak into Khalkhalah airbase exactly one week after massacring more than 200 civilians in a deadly onslaught on west Swaida countryside.

The blitz was eventually repelled with five soldiers of the defenders were killed in action.

The Islamic State snuffies resumed their attack today in bid to achieve some gains. However,
a person who gets all wrapped up in himself makes a mighty small package...
the Syrian and Russian fighter jets pummeled their positions and supply lines, killing and injuring scores.

This comes after the terror group lost its last foothold in west Daraa to the Syrian forces following fierce battles.

ISIS destroys 2 warplanes & 6 drones in KhalKhalah airbase in Syria

The ISIS-owned Amaq news agency reported that the Islamic State turbans destroyed two warplanes and six drones in Khalkhalah Airbase in the last few hours.

The Syrian regime did not comment on the ISIS attack, while a number of pro-regime media outlets stated that the attack was in fact an attempt to sneak into the airbase, but was foiled by the security forces.
