Over the past week, things haven’t been going as well as they normally do for the Western-backed terrorists who have raped and beheaded their way across Syria for the last four years. Likewise, the Western plot to overthrow Assad and replace him with chaos and a weak jihadist/impotent government over four years ago has gone from a quagmire to the beginnings of a reversal.
One such example of how the resistance of the Syrian people and the Assad government, the assistance of the Iranians and Hezbollah, and, of course, the new Russian involvement is already beginning to produce results is the report that the Syrian Arab Army’s 67th Brigade of the 18th Tank Division has captured the Palmyra-Teefor Airbase Road.
The SAA victory came with close coordination between Hezbollah, National Defense Forces, and Ba’ath Battalions.
According to Leith Fadel of Syrian Perspective and Almasdar news, sources have reported that the SAA now controls the entirety of the road from the outskirts of Palmyra all the way to the Teefor (t-4) Airbase. Teefor had been under attack from jihadists for over two months but such attacks were successfully repelled by the SAA forces stationed at the base.
The SAA and Lebanese Resistance forces are now positioned just on the outskirts of Palmyra after having been successful at seizing the hilltop at Tal Syria Tel, west of Palmyra and also at the Western outskirts of the Qassioun Mountains.
