The Free Syrian Army (FSA) – backed by the Levantine Front (Jabhat Al-Shamiyah) – launched a counter-offensive in the northern Aleppo countryside on Friday in order to forestall the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham’s (ISIS) offensive near the strategic border-town of ‘Azaz.
With the help of the U.S. Air Force, the Free Syrian Army and their allies were able to recapture Tatiyah after losing this village to the Islamic State terrorists just 16 hours prior to their counter-assault in northern Aleppo.
Currently, the Free Syrian Army and Jabhat Al-Shamiyah are pushing east towards the small town of Barisha, which was also captured by the Islamic State terrorists on Thursday.
