AhlulBayt News Agency - Two days after liberating the village of ‘Arak in east Palmyra (Tadmur), the Syrian Arab Army’s 60th Brigade of the 11th Tank Division, alongside the National Defense Forces (NDF) and Russian Air Force, imposed full control over the T-3 Military Airport after an intense battle with the so-called Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) terrorists.
The Syrian Armed Forces killed over 20 ISIS militants and destroyed a large number of armored vehicles that were mounted with anti-aircraft machine guns.
As a result of this large advance in the east Homs countryside, the Syrian Armed Forces have opened the road to the imperative desert village of Al-Sukhanah, which is located along the International Highway to the Deir Ezzor Governorate.
Currently, the Syrian Armed Forces are advancing towards Al-Sukhanah from two different axes, leaving them only 28 km west and 31 km south of the aforementioned village.
