Members of the US-backed militant group “Jaish Maghawir al-Thawra”
US-backed militants have retreated from the Al-Halbah area located southeast of the ancient city of Palmyra and north of the Damascus-Baghdad highway in the province of Homs, according to reports circulating in pro-opposition sources.
If reports are confirmed, it will indicate that US-led militant forces is not able to resist to the Syrian military pressure in the southeastern desert. They will likely focus their resistance to government forces in the area of al-Tanf near the Iraqi border where the US Special Forces are deployed.
