Syria army recaptures strategic heights in al-Qalamoun

Soldiers of the Syrian army have taken full control over a gas field, captured by ISIL Takfiri militants earlier in Homs province.

The General Command of the Army said on Saturday that the Syrian troops, backed by local defense forces, recaptured the Shaar field in the suburbs of the province.

It added that the forces inflicted heavy losses on the ISIL terrorists and pushed them out of the field.

Following the conquest, the army’s engineering units were engaged in clearing the region of mines and other explosive devices.

The Takfiri terrorists killed 270 people during their attack on the field earlier in July.

The victims consisted of security guards and civilians who were either killed during the raid or were summarily executed after they captured the area.

Since then the Syrian soldiers have been busy fighting with ISIL there and managed to take parts of the field by killing at least 40 Takfiri militants during a counter-attack on July 19.

Fueled by Western-backed militants, violence has gripped Syria for more than three years, leaving over 160,000 people dead and millions displaced.

According to reports, the Western powers and their regional allies — especially Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey — are supporting the militants operating inside Syria.
