A field commander said that establishing control over the town of Saida cut off the supply lines of terrorists who were near Nassib border crossing, and that establishing control over al-Nu’aima led to the forces in Daraa city making contact with the forces advancing from the eastern countryside.<\/p>\n
Another field commander said the operations in Daraa’s eastern countryside are carried out according to a precise plan, using various types of firepower with support by infantry and tank forces, and proceeding at a rapid pace, adding that with these most recent achievements the army has reclaimed around 95% of the eastern countryside of Daraa.<\/p>\n
