TEHRAN (Defapres)- The army's artillery and missile units, in response, targeted terrorists' positions in Bashantara, Hoor and Bashqatin regions in Western Aleppo, destroying several artillery platforms, launchers, cannons and positions of the terrorists.

Meantime, the artillery and missile units of the Syrian army pounded the terrorists' positions in the area, killing all the terrorists and destroying their military equipment.
The Syrian army's missile units also targeted a movement of Al-Nusra Front (also known as Fatah al-Sham Front or the Levant Liberation Board) near Kharba Marate in Southwestern Aleppo, destroying their military vehicles.
Heavy clashes were also reportedly underway between the Syrian army troops and the terrorists near Tal (Hill) Bazu in Southwestern Aleppo and Syria Tal. A large number of terrorists were killed or wounded in clashes with the Syrian army and the remaining pockets retreated, army reports said.
