Syrian Arab army crushes 14 identified terrorists of Arab nationalities

PROVINCES,(ST)_Military and  official sources have confirmed the death of many of al-Nusra Front affiliates- some of whom were identified outside Homs, Daraa, Hama, Lattakia, and Idlib provinces during the armed forces’ Wednesday-operations.

In details, the armed forces mowed down several terrorists, including 4 identified ones, in al-Khaldeyeh quarter in the central Homs province.

They also eliminated an unknown number of terrorists from al-Nusra Front, most were of Arab nationalities, in the southern Daraa province where tens of explosive devices were confiscated in al-Hrak, the eastern Mleha, and Bosra al-Sham.

A military source told SANA that three terrorists from Jordan and one from Saudi Arabia were  identified among the dead in the said areas, adding that a field hospital plus a hideout were pounded near Abo Horaira Mosque on al-Sad road.

False passports seized

“Dozens of bogus passports were also seized,” the source said, noting that other 9 terrorists from Jordan, Libyan and Palestine were killed on al-Sad road and in towns of Sahm al-Golan, al-Shajara, and Mzereb.

Meanwhile, it was reported that many hideouts and weapons of terrorists were targeted outside Hama province – in towns of al-Hwez and al-Jabereyeh- and outside Lattakia province- in villages of Rabe’a, Samya al-Kark, and Khan al-Joz.

Unknown number of terrorists perished in the said towns and villages.

However, in Idlib countryside, a military source said that a unit of the armed forces warded off terrorists’ attack on a garrison near a brick factory, inflicting heavy losses upon them.

Field hospital found

These developments coincided with continued crackdown operations against foreign-backed terrorists in Damascus countryside where the armed forces  advanced in al-Qabon suburb and discovered a field hospital in Barzeh suburb.

In this context, an official source told SANA that al-Nusra Front-linked terrorist groupings and weapons were targeted in Doma, Adra al-Balad, Harasta, Hajjira, the eastern Ghouta, and al-Zabadani areas.

Kanaker explosion

In a separate development, a car bomb exploded in Kanaker town outside Damascus causing martyrdom of three citizens and leaving several others wounded.

A Police Command source said: “A terrorist group blasted a stolen car bomb near al-Omari Mosque in Kanaker town claiming  three lives and leaving 10 others –including children and women- wounded.”

It added that the explosion caused damages to citizens’ houses and properties at the scene.
