(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Syrian Army troops continued their advances against ISIS terrorists in Eastern Aleppo near the terrorist-held town of al-Bab, capturing two more small but key towns in the region.
The army soldiers engaged in several-hours-long clashes with the terrorists and took full control over the towns of al-Kharabshe and al-Sha'aleh.
The army men also clashed fiercely with ISIS terrorists that had attacked government forces' positions in Khanasser hills in Southeastern Aleppo from Um Mayal direction, killing and wounding a number of them and repelling their attack.
Also in the past 24 hours, a large number of Syrian Army's fresh forces and a large volume of military equipment have arrived in the Eastern parts of Aleppo province to reinvigorate government forces for a new phase of anti-ISIS operation in the region.
A military source disclosed Wednesday that a convoy of fresh forces and equipment of the army has arrived in Eastern Aleppo to take part in an imminent anti-ISIS operation in the regions surrounding the towns of al-Bab and Deir Hafer in next few days.
The army's Special Forces have liberated over 20 regions from ISIS terrorists only after a few days of attacks East of Aleppo province.
The military source went on to say that the army is now in direct contact with the Turkey-led Euphrates Shield Operation's forces after the liberation of 20 region in Eastern Aleppo by its special forces.
Also on Wednesday, the terrorists' emir in the city of Manbij in Aleppo surrendered himself to the predominantly Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), battlefield sources said on Wednesday.
"Abu Abdollah, the ISIS's Bahraini emir of Manbij city, is now in SDF's custody after he surrendered to the Kurdish fighters in the town of al-Khafaseh to the South of Manbij city," a battlefield source said.
The source went on to say that the terrorists' emir intended to spare himself from the ongoing battle between the ISIS and the SDF fighters.
The security emir and commander of the ISIS terrorist group in the Eastern part of Manbij was killed in a tough battle with the Syrian Democratic Forces in late July.
Abu Aisha with Turkish nationality alongside four more terrorist members were killed in fierce clashes with the SDF fighters near al-Daleh square.
