Bosra Al-Sham militants begin handing over their weapons to Syrian government

(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Terrorists groups in Syria's southwestern town of Dara’a have began handing in the weapons to government forces.

According to Hezbollah military media unit on Sunday, militants in Bosra al-Sham have agreed to settle with the government and have begun to hand over their heavy weapons in preparation for the army's entry.

Earlier in the day, Foreign-sponsored Takfiri militants re-launched peace talks with the Russian military in a bid to reach a ceasefire in southwestern Syria as government troops and allied fighters from popular defense groups are making territorial gains there.

Meanwhile, the Syrian army has expanded its military operation in the south and made significant gains against militants with the liberation of dozens of towns and villages in Dara'a.

Syrian forces also carried out attacks on militant supply lines in the eastern and southeastern sectors of Dara'a city.

A series of concentrated artillery strikes against militant routes and supply lines in al-Jumrok al-Qadim in the southeastern part of Dara'a city and in the direction of al-Naima town east of the city were successfully carried my government forces.  

During the attacks a number of terrorist hideouts were destroyed and heavy losses were inflicted on their ranks.

Syria’s southwest is strategically sensitive because of its proximity to the frontiers with both Jordan and the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

The recapture of Dara’a is highly important because it borders the occupied Golan Heights which Israel has used to treat wounded militants for years.
