Hama, SANA- Army units continued military operations against Jabhat al-Nusra terrorist organization in Idleb countryside to eradicate terrorism and restore security to the villages of Abu Dali area in the southeastern countryside of the province.
Field commanders told SANA on Friday that the army adopted a multi-point attack policy from various axes to launch a surprise attack against the terrorist organizations and disperse their defense capabilities.
SANA reporter in the area quoted the field commanders as saying that the army units and the allied forces developed their field work style through setting tight ambushes to the terrorist groups which are active in the fighting lines which begin from al-Tamanaa town in the southern countryside of Idleb to al-Shakousiyeh in the eastern countryside of Hama province.
The army units, backed by the army air force, concentrated on targeting the terrorists’ capabilities and logistic supply routes in order to isolate the terrorists, disperse them and not allowing them to infiltrate into the fight lines, in addition to destroying their vehicles, command centers and hideouts, mainly in Tal Maraq, Tal Mardikh and Saraqeb, according to a field commander.
