The site dates back to the first century AD, and has survived numerous invaders and occupiers. It is seen as one of the most important archaeological sites in the world.
DGAM is trying to contact locals of Palmyra to get information about the destruction of the Temple which dates back to 17 AD, Abdulkarim added, denouncing ISIS’ “systematic genocide war” and mass massacres against the locals.
“ISIS is bringing in archeological thieves to destroy antiquities by excavation of antiquities, looting and selling them”, Abdul karim said.

It’s been around 5 years now and these scumbags still don’t rule Syria…much less rule the several factions of the mercenary terrorists they have temporally “aligned” with…
There is absolutely no way these people can win without some sort of “intervention” similar to the 2003 Iraq war scenario…
Does any reasonable person want to repeat that?
Yeah unfortunately after 5 years assad is not even close to winning eather..And he would have fallen over a year ago if not for Russia so im not really sure why your comment comes off as assad is winning..He cant even control the small areas that he controls. He will never control all of syria again..I hate those terrorist as much as everyone else and feel the same way about assad as i did Saddam..At least thay kept the people in check. Unfortunately tho he was not democratically elected Nomatter how much some want you to believe that he is..if he truly had the support of all syrians or even most syrians he would have won a long time ago..
what we understand is that you talk about things you do not know well, having probably read false information or half-news in the wrong places, who made you strong prejudices: this is exactly what the pro-Western propaganda want, and you, like many others, are just a victim of it.
The war is a very difficult thing to read and interpret, especially if you read the history written by those who caused the war.
We are sorry for you: best wishes, and be better informed…
