ISIS breathes its last breath

Meanwhile, the Islamic Action Front in Lebanon condemned yesterday’s terror attack in Damascus, saying: ” Terrorist groups desperately try to raise their morale through sending suicide bombers to residential areas to kill as many innocent people as possible. These attempts will never change the situation on the ground because ISIS breathes its last breath in Syria and Iraq. “

The Front referred to the connection between ISIS [Its Arabic acronym is Daesh] and many international intelligence agencies that implement agendas serving the US-Zionist plot in the region.

The terror attack that took place in Damascus yesterday reflects the hidden hatred of the perpetrators and their connection with foreign agendas that target Syria’s future and its security, according to Syrian students  and communities in Hungary and Cuba.

The students and communities reiterated their support for the Syrian army, people and wise leadership in fighting terrorism.

Yesterday, a suicide terrorist infiltrated into the Midan Police station and clashed with policemen before blowing himself up. The blast took place after another suicide terrorist threw bombs on the station before blowing himself up at the main entrance of the station.

The two blasts killed scores of persons.
