The Syrian army says it has established 'stable defensive positions' around the strategic central Syrian city
Tens of thousands of people are fleeing in fear from Homs, Syria's third largest city, as foreign-backed armed extremists continue to advance south from the town of Hama.
The joint operations center for Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a UN-designated terrorist organization and offshoot of Al-Qaeda which has long enjoyed US, Qatari, Turkish, and Israeli support, announced its militants have taken two towns, Rastan and Talbisseh, along the strategic M5 highway and are now within five kilometers of Homs...
The SOHR said Russian warplanes had bombed a bridge in Rastan to block the extremists' advance.
On 27 November, militants from US, Turkish, and Israeli-backed HTS and the Turkish-backed Syrian National Army (SNA) launched a lighting attack on Aleppo and its countryside. They seized Aleppo, Syria's second-largest city, three days later, on 30 November, largely without a fight.
Syria's army regrouped to the south to protect the city of Hama but once again withdrew after a brief battle in which the extremists employed large numbers of Ukrainian-supplied drones.
The Syrian army said on 5 December that it “repositioned” and “redeployed” its forces outside the city of Hama to “preserve the lives” of civilians and not expose them to battles. HTS-led factions were able on Thursday to storm several areas in Hama city’s northeastern neighborhoods.
HTS militants successfully took control of most of Hama on 5 December.
