Syrian Army Continues to Advance in Eastern Damascus

The Syrian army troops heavily pounded Faylaq Al-Rahman’s positions in Jobar in Eastern Damascus, inflicting significant damage to the militants' defense lines.

The pro-government forces also launched attacks on Faylaq al-Rahman’s positions around the strategic al-Manasher square in the Southern part of Jobar.

The Syrian soldiers have managed to win back control of about 20 blocks inside Jobar in the past few hours.

They also heavily attacked the Takfiri terrorists' positions in Ein Tarma, opening their path in the region.

Meantime, a well-informed source said on Wednesday that clashes among rival terrorist groups have intensified following the Syrian Army troops' advances in Ein Terma and Jobar regions in Eastern Damascus.

The source said that Faylaq al-Rahman stormed the positions of Ahrar al-Sham in Eastern Ghouta and imposed control over the village of Modira.

Also, Faylaq al-Rahman drove Ahrar al-Sham fighters out of the town of Arbin and attacked more positions of Ahrar in the towns of Kafr Batna and Saqba.

In the meantime, Faylaq al-Rahman stormed the positions of Al-Nusra Front (Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at or the Levant Liberation Board) in the towns of Kafr Batna and pushed them away from the town.

Faylaq al-Rahman has, in a statement, denied any agreement with Jeish al-Islam over driving the Al-Nusra out of Eastern Ghouta, and meantime called on Jeish al-Islam to halt attacking its positions.

Faylaq also announced in the statement that they drove Al-Nusra Front out of al-Ash'ari region.

Meanwhile, Faylaq al-Rahman said in the statement that Jeish al-Islam violated the agreement and attacked Faylaq's positions in al-Asha'ari region, Beit Sowa and al-Aftaris.
