Opposition fighting factions captured positions near the Missile Battalion in Hazrama, hours after Assad terrorists had advanced to the area, according to activists.

Assad terrorists carried out a surprise fierce attack on the battalion using a big number of armored and four-wheel drive vehicles, field sources told Orient Net. This coincided with intense artillery shelling and targeting the area with a number of surface-to-surface missiles, the sources added.

Opposition fighters, however, retook initiative and repelled the attack, killing 12 Assad terrorists and destroying two tanks and a Shilka vehicle.

After that, Al-Rahman Corps, along with Ahrar al-Sham and Jaysh al-Islam, were able to fully control the battalion.
