Damascus, (SANA)- President Bashar al-Assad stressed Thursday that the enemy, despite all of its attempts and those standing behind it, has failed to kill the pride and courage of the Syrians as it found itself faced with an army that knows no defeat nor fear.
During inspecting a unit of the armed forces in Daraya city in Damascus Countryside on the occasion of the Syrian Arab Army's Day, marked on August 1st of every year, President al-Assad said the Syrian army has spread fear in the terrorists' hearts and has protected the homeland and is still doing so.
He added that history will record what the Syrian army members are doing today as the whole world are now talking about the Syrian Arab Army.
"Your motto has always been 'Homeland…Honor…Honesty', and here you are honestly defending the homeland and its honor," President al-Assad said.
