In northern Lataka, the Syrian Army and the National Defense Forces have been engaging in clashes with militants of Al Nusra, Ahrar Al-Sham and the Turkmen Islamic Party. The main clashes are ongoing for areas in Jabal Al-Akrad where militants had launched to advance on the positions of pro-government forces earlier this week.
After 3 days of heavy firefights, the situation in the region could be described as stable tense.
