Syrian Airstrikes Destroy Terrorist Convoy on Aleppo-Damascus M5 Highway, Halt Offensive
Planes of the Syrian Air Force carried out a series of strikes on a column of militant armored vehicles on the M5 Aleppo-Damascus Motorway, disrupting their offensive, a source in the country's security services told Sputnik.
"Syrian aircraft carried out several strikes on a column of armored vehicles of terrorists on the M5 road who were about to launch an offensive, destroying their equipment," the source said.
Earlier, on Saturday, the deputy head of the Russian Reconciliation Center for Syria, Captain First Rank Oleg Ignasyuk, said that at least 300 militants had been destroyed in Aleppo and Idlib.
Syrian President Bashar Assad said that the country continues to defend its territorial integrity and is capable of destroying terrorists with the help of friends and allies, the Syrian leader's office said.
Assad held a phone conversation with UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to discuss the latest developments in Syria and a number of regional issues.
"President Assad said during the conversation that Syria continues to defend its stability and territorial integrity from all terrorists and those who support them, and is capable of defeating and destroying them with the help of allies and friends," the statement read.
The Syrian Armed Forces Command said Saturday that dozens of Syrian soldiers had been killed in combat operations against terrorist groups in the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib, and that the army had redeployed to save the lives of civilians and soldiers as well as prepare for a counteroffensive.
The Syrian Army said that terrorists had penetrated many areas of the Syrian city of Aleppo, and that the armed forces were continuing to strike their positions and awaiting the arrival of reinforcements.
Earlier, the Syrian Defense Ministry said that government forces had engaged in combat with terrorists who attacked the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib. In violation of the de-escalation agreement, groups belonging to Hayat Tahrir al-Sham* struck villages, settlements, and military positions along a wide front in the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib. According to the ministry, the army responded to the attack, resulting in terrorists suffering losses in manpower and equipment.
