The Syrian army has made peace with the "moderate opposition"
Earlier this morning, the soldiers of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) captured the cement factory and military base Badia Khan About Samat after brief clashes with militants of DAYS* East of Damascus, according to AlMasdar news.
Meanwhile, Pro-government forces are trying to storm the city of Dumaire. Local sources note that the exchange of fire with extremists from groups "Jaysh al-Islam" and DAYS are already on the territory of the city. To date, regular wax control approximately 50 per cent of the territory of this settlement. Members of the armed forces of Syria say that they managed to take a group of radical Islamists in the boiler and to cut off their lines of communication with the outside world, depriving supplies of ammunition and reinforcements.
It is noteworthy that in the area was recorded for the first time the ceasefire between government forces and "moderate opposition". Members of the armed forces note that for the first time in five years of civil war, the militants of the radical branches of the "moderate opposition" began to cooperate with the regular troops and joined the fight against DAISH. However, some units of the "moderate opposition" continue to fight alongside extremists.
So, as a demonstration of good will, command the CAA recently allowed a few groups of fighters from group "Jaysh al-Islam" to leave Eastern ghouta. Field commanders "Jaysh al-Islam" and "brigades Ahmad al-Abdo", consisting in the "Free Syrian army", have exchanged contact details with the command of the CAA and agreed on a joint offensive against the militants of DAYS and the cover forces of "moderate opposition" from the air if necessary.
After the cease-fire with opposition forces soldiers of the 81st and 120th teams from division 2 in cooperation with National defense forces launched an attack toward the strategically important military air base saikal, which is surrounded by over a long period of time. Also Syrian troops have launched an offensive with the troops of the "moderate opposition" in an easterly direction from Damascus. However, military analysts believe that the regular troops and their allies fail to make substantial progress, because the terrorists will stand up to last in these areas.
This is their only way to the capital of Syria, which the militants of DAYS want to capture.
