(VIDEO) Syrian Army Liberates One of Last ISIS Strongholds in Homs Province

21st Century Wire says…

The US and Israel’s frustrations continued today, as the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) liberated the town of al-Sukhnah, the last remaining ISIS stronghold in Homs Province.

Despite being under-equipped and under-funded, the Syrian Army has still managed to defeat the billion dollar-funded, imported foreign terrorist army commonly known as the ‘Islamic State.’ In the last 3 months, the SAA have managed to push out, and push back the Western ‘regime change’ proxies – out of numerous key strategic areas previous occupied the terrorists.
