Government forces, led by the Syrian Army Tiger Forces, have been advancing towards the province of Raqqah after the liberation of the strategic Jirah Military Airbase in the province of Aleppo.
Last night, the Tiger Forces retook the Jirah Military Airbase after few days of heavy clashes with ISIS terrorists. On Saturday, government troops continued their operations against ISIS south of the airbase advancing along the road to the ISIS self-proclaimed capital of Raqqah.
The town of Maskaneh will be the next major target of the government forces advance in the province of Aleppo. If the town is liberated, ISIS will have no strongholds in the southeastern part of the province of Aleppo and will be pushed to withdraw from the area.
