Hezbollah military units and the Syrian army troops managed to cleanse the area which extends from Albu Kamal in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor to southwestern Palmyra in eastern Homs on border with Iraq.
This anti-terror campaign synchronizes with a similar operation launched by the Iraqi popular forces on the other side of the border to squeeze the remnants of ISIL terrorists who were defeated by the Syrian army and allies in their last stronghold in Al-Baghouz.
