A great loss for everyone in the world, not just for the Syrians.
The general, familiarly called “the General”, was a great fighter and patriot, always at the head of his soldiers, who would follow him to hell if necessary, in the fighting against the mercenary-terrorist gangs armed by USA-Israel and their puppets.
You will remain always in our hearts and in our minds, as an example of man and fighter. R.I.P.
