FARS News Agency:
At least 35 terrorist were killed and many more were wounded in the Hezbollah missile units’ heavy attacks on their positions in Bani Zeid, Zohra Abd and al-Shaqif neighborhoods in the Northern part of Aleppo.
In the meantime, the Syrian army’s artillery units shelled militants’ centers in al-Maliyeh and al-Salat in Western part of al-Zahra neighborhood, pinning down terrorists behind their defense lines.
Terrorists confirmed in their media pages on Wednesday that a senior field commander of the militant groups has been killed in fierce clashes with the Syrian army soldiers and popular forces in Northern Aleppo.
“Commander of Abu Amara Battalions Yassin Najar also known as Khattab was killed in a tough battle with the Syrian pro-government forces in Northern countryside of Aleppo,” the sources said.
In the meantime, local sources in Northern Aleppo announced that government forces’ advances along Castillo highway and capture of a resort center have cut off completely supply routes connecting Eastern neighborhoods of Aleppo with Kafr Hamra, Hraytan and Anadan in Northwestern side of Aleppo, which in turn has paved the way for easier closure of terrorists’ supply lines in Bani Zeid and its Northern areas.
