Ahrar Al-Sham began their assault to prevail over the army’s frontlines in the town of Jaboureen, but their attack was repelled by the army men after several hours of fighting.
The terrorists continued the assault by launching a large number of artillery and missile strikes on the towns of Jaboureen, Akrad al-Dasniyah and Qani al-Assi.
Several civilians were reportedly killed or wounded by the indiscriminate missile and artillery strikes, which led to a vicious response from the Army and Air Force.
The terrorists have violated the ceasefire agreement that was set up to ensure a de-escalation zone in Northern Homs.
Relevant reports said earlier this month that the army units retook control of the three villages of Job al-Bashir, Southern al-Jarf, Northern al-Jarf and Middle al-Jarf in the Northeastern parts of Job al-Jarah region on Thursday.
Meantime, they won back control of all hills adjacent to the villages of Northern al-Qassemiyeh, Rabi'eh and Maqizal.
A field source also confirmed that the army forces could establish security in Job al-Jarah region and all roads leading to it in Eastern Homs.
