One week after the start of the military operation in the area, continuous and rapid collapse of Jaysh Khaled Ibn al-Walid in Yarmouk Basin and south of Quneitra

The regime forces supported by their loyal gunmen continue their attacks on sites of Jaysh Khalid Ibn al-Walid, which swore allegiance to the “Islamic State” organization in Yarmouk Basin area in the western countryside of Daraa, and the far southern countryside of Quneitra adjacent to Yarmouk Basin, accompanied by continued and intense airstrikes on positions of Jaysh Khalid in the area, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored the regime forces continue to advance and control more areas at an accelerated rate under intense fire cover, raising to at least 22, the number of towns and villages controlled by the regime forces during the last 24 hours in the Yarmouk Basin and south of Quneitra, most notably Abu Hartyn, Saida al-Golan, and Ayn Thakar, amid major collapses among members of the “Islamic State” Organization after one week of regime forces’ military operations in the area, which were accompanied by a 2420 airstrike by Russian warplanes and regime’s warplanes and helicopters, amid shelling by hundreds of missiles and artillery, rocket, tank, and mortar shells in the area since the 19th of July 2018, which in turn caused a large collapse for the organization, which has nothing left except for a number of towns and villages in Yarmouk Basin and the far south of Quneitra, the most prominent of which are Jellin, al-Mzyr’aa, Tasil, Adwan, al-Shajra, Naf’aa, and Sahm al-Golan, while the regime forces seek to continue to end the presence of Jaysh Khalid Ibn al-Walid through their attacks in the area.
