ISIS reappears in east Homs to attack Syrian Army troops
2018-08-19
[ALMASDARNEWS] 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....
(ISIS) reappeared in the eastern countryside of the Homs Governorate last night to attack the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) troops in the Badiya al-Sham region.

ISIS began their attack by storming the Syrian Arab Army’s positions inside the al-Bardah area; this would result in a fierce battle that would last for several hours.

However,
alcohol has never solved anybody's problems. But then, neither has milk...
despite the intensity of their attack, the Islamic State was unable to make any substantial gains against the Syrian Arab Army in the al-Bardah area of east Homs.

According to a military source in Damascus, the Islamic State fled back in the desert after failing to infiltrate the Syrian Arab Army’s second line of defense.

The source added that ISIS has recently intensified their hit and run attacks in eastern Syria after the Syrian Arab Army launched their large-scale offensive in the eastern countryside of Sweida.
