According to pro-government sources, the Syrian Arab army (SAA), the National Defense Forces (NDF) and Hezbollah, assisted by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Russia’s Aerospace Forces, have taken control over the Ratka oil field, Suwayyah, al-Hiri, Huwayjat Baghuz and started storming the ISIS-held city of al-Bukamal at the Syrian-Iraqi border.
Syrian forces are reportedly assisted by the Iraqi Popular Moblization Units (PMU). Members of the PMU’s Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba were filmed alongside Syrian forces.
