مراسل #الدفاع_الوطني : الجيش العربي السوري بالتعاون مع القوات الرديفة يحكم سيطرته على مضخات #الخفسة… https://t.co/kUOZ2HZF5x— الدفاع الوطني- سورية (@NationalDefens) March 7, 2017
These important gains were announced by the NDF’s Twitter account but the videos and photos from the area were not released.
The liberation of the Khafsah Water Treatment Station will allow the Assad government to restore water supplies to the city of Aleppo which had been disrupted when ISIS terrorists damaged the station.
The control over Khafsah also means that a chunk of the ISIS-held area northwest of it will be liberated soon.
