The Syrian Arab Armed Forces and Allies officially launched the Operation to retake the Syrian Desert toward the Syrian-Iraqi borders.

In the first phase of the operation, SAA and Allies secured an area of 1300km2, isolated the remaining pockets in Eastern Damascus that might cause disturbances in the Capital and placed them under complete siege cutting them off from the Desert and from there to the Jordanian borders where they get their arms and funds; and also secured al-Seen airbase from any possible threat by these terrorist groups.

Simultaneously, the Syrian Arab Army and Allies launched an operation in the Eastern Countryside of Aleppo after successfully blocking an Turkish activity in the area.

Alongside an operation from Palmyra in which the Syrian troops secured the hilltops overseeing the roads toward Palmyra and thus making any possible flanking by ISIS or any other group a suicide before continuing their push deeper in the Syrian Desert.

Today, and despite every foreign effort to hold them back, the Syrian Arab Armed Forces and their Allies initiated their operations in the Syrian Desert from multiple axes and simultaneously; and for the first time, the breaching units were not transported between axes, today all the units are at the same level of experience, training and readiness; launched what could be the largest operation SAA launched since the beginning of the war, and one of the most discrete operations we came to see yet…

Al-Qaryatayn had been held by terrorist groups since late August. The liberation of the city proclaimed April 3 came days after Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) was pushed out of the ancient city of Palmyra, 100km (60 miles) to the east.

The jihadists apparently used a bulldozer to partially destroy St Elias Monastery, which dates back more than 1,500 years. Human bones from ancient graves are strewed amidst the rubble.

Inside the monastery there is an Assyrian church and all Christian symbols in it have been destroyed. In the church graveyard, the gravestones have been trashed and all the crosses removed.

Thankfully, the monastery’s beautiful old church is still standing, but has been severely desecrated. After an apparent attempt to set the building on fire from inside, the old beams look burnt and the floor is covered with burnt pages with texts in Assyrian from Christian holy books.

There is not one building left in Al-Qaryatayn that has escaped damage from the fighting.

Army Command: “Victory at al-Qaryatain ensures oil and gas pipeline security and blocking ISIS supply routes”.

The General Command of the Army and the Armed Forces confirmed Sunday that the army units, aided by the popular defense groups and backed by the Syrian and Russian Air Forces, restored security and stability to al-Qaryatain city and the farms surrounding it in southeastern Homs.

In a statement, the Army Command said retaking al-Qaryatain city is just another severe blow to ISIS terrorists, following their successive defeats in tens of villages and towns in eastern Aleppo, and most recently in Palmyra.

The statement described the military operation in al-Qaryatain as “precise” and “swift” during which large numbers of ISIS terrorists were killed after all their supply routes to the city were cut off and the overlooking mountains and hills controlled.

Taking control of the city came after the army units, in cooperation with the supporting forces, earlier advanced further inside it from various directions, removing all mines on their way, and had established control over the northern neighborhood.

The army units have hunted down fleeing ISIS terrorists inside the city and dismantled scores of explosive devices and mines left behind.

A VERY HAPPY EASTER !!! ALSO PALMYRA RESIDENTIAL CITY HAS BEEN TOTALLY LIBERATED: NOW IT’S UP TO RAQQA

After the historical Palmyra, also the residential Palmyra city has been liberated today by the Special Units of the Syrian Armed Forces, in joint operations with Hezbollah, the Iranian brigades, with aerial coverage by the Rusian Air Forces.

“Palmyra city is now fully cleared of Daesh (ISIS, ISIL, IS) terrorists after the army established complete control over all its parts, including the archeological site and the airport,” the source said in a statement.

The army’s engineering units have immediately embarked on combing the city, finding and dismantling hundreds of bombs and explosive devices planted by Daesh mercenary-terrorists between the ancient relics, houses and orchards, the source mentioned.

Army Command praises Palmyra victory, stresses that the Syrian Arab Army, with Popular Special Unit Forces and its Allies (Hezbollah, Iranian Brigades, Russian Air Forces) are the only forces capable of eradicating terrorism in the Middle East area, for the benefit of the whole world.

With Palmyra city under control, military operations against Daesh will expand starting from this springboard towards various axes and directions, on top being Deir Ezzor and Raqqa, especially that this victory helps in further tightening the noose around Daesh terrorists and cutting off their supply routes in the areas under their control until having these areas fully restored, the statement explained.

Army units, in cooperation with the popular defense groups, continued military operations to retake Tadmur (Palmyra city) where fierce clashes are taking place in various areas, with ISIS terrorists suffering heavy losses.

The operations have resulted in establishing full control over the neighborhoods of al-Mutaqa’idin, al-Ameriyeh and al-Jamiyat al-Gharbiyeh in Tadmur city, according to sources on the ground.

The archaeological Palmyra Castle was found to have sustained massive damage deliberately inflicted by ISIS terrorists before they have fled deep into Tadmur (Palmyra) city.

While it can only be seen from the outside, the castle seems to have had the stairway leading through its entrance blown up and completely demolished, along with many other parts of the castle’s structure.

Video of mercenary-terrorists and TOW operators [using BGM-71 TOW American-made and supplied by the United States], who got captured and ‘welcomed’ by Syrian forces. Two were identified as those who blew up Russian rescue helicopter searching for SU-24 pilot, killing one Russia marine and posting videos on Youtube.
There is no place on earth where these killers can hide: all will be found.
The prisoners have not been executed and are in good health: they are now collaborating with the Syrian intelligence, providing very useful information to track down their accomplices and their hideouts, as well as those who provided them with weapons and logistical coverage.
