The army’s command clarified that units of army did their best to implement the truce regime and exercised the highest degree of self-restraint in facing the breaches of the terrorist groups except in some cases when the army units were forced to respond to fire sources.
The general Command concluded its statement by emphasizing on its intention and determination to continue its national tasks in the fight against terrorism to restore security and stability to the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic.
