Fierce battles erupted today whereby the government troops managed to recapture Thawrah oil fields and workers’ housing area to the northeast of Sfaiyeh oil field, thus posing less than 15 km to the south of the al-Tabqa Airbase.
According to a field reporter accompanying the military campaign, dozens of ISIS jihadists have been killed and wounded in the battles.
