According to the Lebanese journalist Hosein Murtada, the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) has suffered over 70 casualties today inside the Al-Baghayliyah District of the Deir Ezzor Governorate, marking one of the bloodiest days of this imperative battle in Syria’s eastern countryside.

Reports from the Deir Ezzor Governorate indicate that the Syrian Arab Army’s 104th Airborne Brigade of the Republican Guard is now on the offensive in Al-Baghayliyah after ISIS attempted to break into the village earlier this morning.

Accoridng to a military source in Deir Ezzor, the Syrian Arab Army’s 104th Airborne Brigade has reportedly rescued two families that were held hostage by the ISIS terrorists near the Radio Broadcast Tower – they are confirmed to be in good health after being rescued.

The Syrian Arab Army’s 104th Airborne Brigade is currently trying to restore the points they lost to the ISIS terrorists in the zal-Baghayliyah District over the weekend; however, this entire fight has gone back-and-forth, with both sides going on the offensive throughout the course of the battle.

ISIS is still attempting to break into the 137th Artillery Brigade’s headquarters in southwestern Deir Ezzor – they have been reportedly held off once again by the soldiers protecting this base.

The Syrian Arab Army is on the move in Deir Ezzor’s northwestern countryside today, recapturing several sites that were under the control of the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) since Sunday.

Earlier today, the Syrian Arab Army’s 104th Airborne Brigade of the Republican Guard – in close coordination with the 137th Artillery Brigade of the 17th Reserve Division, the National Defense Forces (NDF), and the Shaytat Tribesmen – imposed full control over the Saiqa Camp and the strategic hilltop of Tal Kroum after a violent battle with the ISIS terrorists.

. According to a military source in Deir Ezzor, the Syrian Arab Army’s 104th Airborne Brigade is now targeting the Ayyash weapons depot that was captured by ISIS on Sunday; if they are able to recapture this site, along with Jabal Thurdeh, they will have effectively reversed all of the terrorist group’s gains.

Preliminary reports from Deir Ezzor indicate that the Syrian Armed Forces have recaptured the Ayyash weapons depot; however, there has been no official confirmation or footage from the Syrian Arab Army.

In addition to their success at these aforementioned sites, the Syrian Arab Army’s 104th Brigade also repelled ISIS’ large-scale assault on the Deir Ezzor Military Airport this morning, killing over 30 enemy combatants in the process of clearing the area.

Complete battle update of Deir Ezzor: Day 5

Day 5 of the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) offensive inside the Deir Ezzor Governorate was by far one of the bloodiest days this week, as the aforementioned terrorist group sacrificed several fighters to make small advances near the provincial capital and its military airport.

ISIS began the day by launching a massive assault on the Deir Ezzor Military Airport and the village of Jafra, striking the Syrian Arab Army’s eastern flank at both sites.

However, the ISIS terrorists were unable to make any progress at this front; instead, they lost over 20 combatants during the failed infiltration attempt at the Deir Ezzor Military Airport.

Following their failed assault on the Deir Ezzor Military Airport, ISIS renewed their assault on the 137th Artillery Brigade’s headquarters; however, they were quickly repelled by the Syrian Arab Army soldiers entrenched inside of this base.I

The Syrian Arab Army’s 137th Brigade of the 17th Reserve Division responded with their own counter-attack near the strategic hilltop of Tal Kroum, capturing this site after a short battle with the ISIS terrorists.

Not long after capturing Tal Kroum, the Syrian Arab Army’s 137th Brigade – backed by the 104th Airborne Brigade of the Republican Guard – made several advances inside of the Al-Baghayliyah District, pushing as far north as the Saiqa Camp.

Unfortunately, the advance was cut short due to the ISIS counter-assault coming from the north; if the Syrian Armed Forces did not withdraw back to the southern sector of the Al-Baghayliyah District, the terrorist group could have cutoff the advancing soldiers from their necessary supply line.

As a result of this withdraw by the Syrian Armed Forces, ISIS took the opportunity to seize the entire area surrounding the Radio Broadcast Tower and even pushed as far west as the Al-Furat Hotel, which is located near Deir Ezzor City’s western entrance.

In addition to the ISIS advance on the western outskirts of the city, ISIS also claimed they are in full control of Al-Hurayf Hill in west Deir Ezzor.

Meanwhile, north of the Al-Baghayliyah District, the Syrian Arab Army’s 104th Brigade and the National Defense Forces (NDF) successfully reentered the ‘Ayyash storage depot’s parameters – fighting is still ongoing there.
