Over the last three weeks, Hezbollah’s absence from the southern Aleppo front has been greatly missed by the Syrian Armed Forces and their allies as they were forced to withstand a massive counter-assault by the Islamist rebels from Harakat Ahrar Al-Sham, Harakat Nouriddeen Al-Zinki, and the Syrian Al-Qaeda group “Jabhat Al-Nusra”.
Luckily, help arrived earlier this week in the form of the newly brandished Russian T-90 Tanks that were delivered to the port of Latakia in early November.
In addition to the arrival of the T-90 Tanks, a large convoy of reinforcements from the Syrian Arab Army’s 4th Mechanized Division and Hezbollah rejoined the battle in the Aleppo Governorate’s southern countryside, giving the embattled soldiers combatting the Islamist rebels a much needed boost.
