Syrian Army reportedly captures last strategic town in northwestern Hama
2019-05-10
[ALMASDARNEWS] The last strategic town under the control of the bully boy forces in northwestern Hama has been reportedly captured by the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and their allies.

According to reports, the Syrian Arab Army captured the key town of Qal’at al-Madiq after the jihadist rebels of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham
and their allies withdrew from the area.

Al-Masdar has reached out to a Syrian Army source to confirm the report; however, they said there has been no confirmation from their end, despite claims by pro-opposition media about the loss of the historical town.

If Qal’at al-Madiq is indeed captured by the Syrian Arab Army, this would be a major blow to the opposition forces, as this historical town gave them the territorial advantage in northwestern Hama.

Lastly, the loss of Qal’at al-Madiq for the rebels will only open a pathway to the bully boy-held areas in the al-Ghaab Plain.
