Military Analyst: Militants Trying Hard to Compromise with Syrian Government in Aleppo

 

"The terrorist groups are now completely on the defensive as the Syrian army has cut all their supply routes in the province," Mohammad Farid Issa told FNA on Wednesday.

The military analyst, meantime, pointed to the Syrian army's recent achievements in Aleppo province by breaking the siege of Nubl and al-Zahra towns, and said, "Thousands of combatants who were defending Nubl and al-Zahra over the past four years have now joined the Syrian army to help the government forces take control of Tal Rafat and Ezaz towns and to block the passage that the terrorists use for their logistics to lay siege on Aleppo city."

In a relevant development on Tuesday, a leading Saudi newspaper referred to the state of confusion and distress among the terrorists deployed in Aleppo after the Syrian army and popular forces' recent advance and victories, and predicted that the Northern city will be won back soon.

The London-based al-Arab daily admitted failure of the Saudi-backed terrorists in Aleppo province, and said the Syrian army can win the battle and strike a heavy blow at the terrorist groups in the country.

"If the Syrian army can act well and opts for the strategy of siege and extensive bombing of terrorists' positions, it is possible that Aleppo will fully collapse. Actually, this is a strategy used to sustain less toll and damage," the paper wrote on Tuesday.

The newspaper also predicted that Russia's extensive support for Syria in Aleppo will pave the ground for the army and its allies to retake control of the province in the near future.
