Syrian Army units inflicted more losses and casualties upon terrorist organizations in continued operations backed by air strikes in various areas across the country on Friday, state-run SANA news agency reported.

In Idleb, army units targeted gatherings of terrorists in al-Sermaniyeh and Jannet al-Qura villages in southern Jisr al-Shughour in the southwestern countryside of the northern Idleb province.

A military source said many of the terrorists were killed, while an armored vehicle was destroyed in al-Sermaniyeh and a bulldozer in Jannet al-Qura.

In the meantime, SANA quoted field sources as saying that many terrorists of al-Nusra Front and the so-called “Ahrar al-Sham Movement (Free People of Syria)” were killed as the army targeted their hideouts in the towns of al-Taman’eh and Kafr Oweid in southern Idleb province.

In the neighboring Hama province, five terrorist leaders were killed as the army artillery targeted their hideout while they were holding a meeting in Toloul al-Homr village to the east of Salamiyeh city in the countryside of the province, according to field sources.

An ammunition depot and a logistic supply route were hit and destroyed at the Agricultural Research building and Bawadi al-Azib in the eastern countryside of Salamiyeh.

In Quneitra, an army unit targeted dens of al-Nusra terrorists in Mas’hara village, 12 km to the east of the city.

The army operation left a number of terrorists dead and injured, and their arms and ammunition destroyed.

In al-Zabadani city in Damascus Countryside, the army air force destroyed a rocket depot and artillery bases and killed many terrorists in a series of air strikes on their positions.

Meanwhile, a number of terrorist groups’ leaders were killed and an ammunition depot was destroyed during army operations in Douma, Harasta, Masraba and al-Rihan in Eastern Ghouta.

Syria was hit by a violent unrest since mid-March 2011, where the western media reports accuse countries, mainly the USA, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar of orchestrating the civil conflict in the country and providing terrorist groups with money, weapons and trained mercenaries.

On May 2011, Syrian army launched a wide-scale operation against armed groups and gunmen operating in the country, who started to escape the army blows and infiltrate illegally to Lebanon.
