The Syrian Army troops pushed ISIL back from the town of
al-Qouriyeh in Eastern Dier Ezzur, killing and wounding a number of terrorists.
A field source reported that the army has killed over 20 ISIL terrorists and destroyed five vehicles thus far en route to liberating several areas in and around Al-Qouriyeh.
The army’s primary objective now is to reach the nearby town of al-Asharaha, which is an ISIL stronghold with a large command-and-control center.
Local sources reported on Sunday a sum of 50 Syrian terrorists left Albu Kamal along with their family members for regions out of ISIL control.
The army soldiers are advancing towards Albu Kamal after they captured the town of al-Mayadeen a couple of days ago.
