ISIS resurgence | Regime jets strike ISIS positions in Hama-Aleppo-Al-Raqqah triangle, amid fierce battles between both sides
Syrian Observatory sources have reported that regime jets, took off from “T4” airbase in Homs, executed several airstrikes on ISIS positions in Oqayrbat district in the eastern desert of Hama.
The airstrikes coincide with fierce battles between ISIS and regime forces near Hama-Aleppo-Al-Raqqah triangle to the flank of the eastern desert of Hama.
On June 11, Regime jets continued bombing ISIS positions in Oqayrabat district in the eastern desert of Hama, along with regime sweeping operations in Al-Rwaydah and Jana Al-Albawi areas, searching for ISIS cells.
These developments followed fierce attack by ISIS members a day earlier and clashes which followed it, which both left great losses in the ranks of the two sides.
As SOHR activists documented more fatalities, the number of ISIS members who were killed in the air and ground strikes and clashes in the past 24 hours rose to 21, while 13 regime soldiers and loyalists were killed in the same clashes.
It is worth noting that ISIS is largely active in the area of Aleppo-Hama-Al-Raqqah triangle in the Syrian desert.
