The Arabic website of Sputnik quoted Heitham Hassoun as saying on Sunday that the Syrian army will purge the terrorists from the Southwestern parts of Damascus by regaining control over the two strategic towns of Mughur al-Mir and Beit Jin.
He added that the army has regained control of the Northern entrances of Quneitra province after winning back these regions and will cut the Zionists' hands who attempt to enter this region using the terrorist groups.
Hassoun underlined the strategic importance of the liberation operations in Beit Jin and Mughur al-Mir regions, adding that this achievement will be a prelude to the army's preparation to liberate all regions in the occupied Golan.
He said that Israel's interference in this region (Southwestern Damascus) has been proved, adding that the latest reports show Israel's financial and logistic support for the terrorist groups.
Tens of terrorists laid down their arms and joined the ceasefire regime on Saturday and left Southwestern Damascus towards Idlib and Dara'a provinces.
Nearly all the terrorists who had demanded to leave Southwestern Damascus were relocated together with their families from Beit Jen to Idlib and Dara'a provinces within the framework of an agreement with the Syrian army.
A sum of 65 terrorists together with their families left Beit Jen towards Idlib province on four buses.
Meantime, 106 terrorists along with their families left Beit Jen towards Idlib on six buses.
Battlefield sources also reported that Al-Nusra Front terrorists set fire to their headquarters and military hardware before leaving Southwestern Damascus.
Meantime, army sources said that the militants who intend to remain in Beit Jen will have their cases dealt with in coming days.
