Newscast Media DAMASCUS—Syrian war planes carried out a series of air raids Tuesday on positions
held by ISIL group in eastern Deir Ezour province, state
media said.
"Syrian army forces targeted headquarters and
warehouses storing weapons and ammunition belonging to the terrorist
group known as ISIL, destroying them completely," Syria's state news
agency SANA reported.
The agency added that the army had also targeted groups of ISIL members, "killing large numbers of them."
The opposing UK-based Syrian Observatory said the Syrian army had carried out at least 12 strikes across the oil-rich province.
"It's
the first time since the ISIL took control of most of Deir Ezour that
warplanes have carried out such intensive and pinpoint raids against
ISIL positions in the region," Observatory director Rami Abdul Rahman
said.
The Syrian army launched Tuesday large-scale operations
against terrorists' gatherings, foiling their infiltration attempts in
many areas across the country and killing scores of terrorists.
