Syria airstrikes kill over 100 Daesh terrorists in Hama
More than 100 members of the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group have been killed in airstrikes by Syrian warplanes on their positions in the western province of Hama.
The Syrian fighter jets pounded areas in the vicinity of the village of al-Mufakar al-Sharqi near the city of Salamiyah on Wednesday, Syria’s official news agency SANA reported.
A military source said over a dozen armored vehicles equipped with machine guns and belonging to the terrorists were also destroyed.
On Tuesday, the Syrian army and popular forces took control over several areas east of Salamiyah.
To the north of the country, Syrian warplanes destroyed a Takfiri command center in Raqqah province, which has been the stronghold of Daesh in Syria.
The terrorists were also dealt heavy blows by the Syrian forces in several areas across the provinces of Homs, Dayr al-Zawr and Dara’a.
United Nations Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura estimates that over 400,000 people have been killed in the conflict that has gripped Syria for over five years now. The UN has stopped its official casualty count in Syria, citing its inability to verify the figures that it receives from various sources.
