Local sources in Eastern Ghouta reported that terrorist groups have been hitting each others' positions as the Syrian Army troops have continued their operation to liberate the rest of the militant-held regions in Damascus province.
The sources said that Jeish al-Islam stormed the positions of a rival terrorist group and won control over the only passageway to al-Qaboun district.
In the meantime, Spokesman for Faylaq al-Rahman group Wa'el Alwan confirmed that his forces' movements and route to al-Qaboun have been cut off after Jeish al-Islam took control over the road connecting Eastern Ghouta and al-Qaboun.
Reports also said that Jeish al-Islam tries to attack Fayalq al-Rahman's defense lines in the town of Jisrin from the direction of the village of al-Mohammadiyeh in Eastern Ghouta.
Reports also added that Jeish al-Islam engaged in fierce clashes with Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at (the Levant Liberation Board) and seized their main positions in the towns of Arbin and al-Ash'ari region in Eastern Ghouta, including their main command post and administrative centers. Jeish al-Islam gave a 24-hour-long ultimatum to the family members of Tahrir al-Sham militants in al-Ash'ari to leave the region, Fars News reports.
Relevant reports said on Saturday that the terrorists of Al-Nusra Front (also known as Fatah al-Sham Front or the Levant Liberation Board) continued retreat from Eastern Ghouta under the heavy offensive of the Syrian Army troops. The army men engaged in further clashes with Al-Nusra South of al-Qaboun district and managed to take full control over several residential complexes in the district.
The Al-Nusra suffered a heavy death toll and its military hardware sustained major damage in the attack.
