Syria gives East Guta militants a chance: why does the SAA spread leaflets over an enclave in Damascus
The military spread leaflets to East Gutu: the militants are informed - "those who are not ready to receive an amnesty can simply leave the city together with their families on the given corridor"

It is worth noting that the government troops are confidently advancing in East Gut. To date, they have managed to free most of the farms and several settlements from the militants, including Nawabiya, Uthaya, Khosh al-Dawahir, Shiffoniya, Beit-Sawa and some others.

Developing the offensive from the east, advanced SAA units have already reached the cities located in the western part of the enclave. Here, the main forces of the terrorist alliance "Djebhat al-Nusra" 1 (banned in Russia) "Hayat Tahrir ash Sham", as well as the allied armed groups "Jays al-Islam" and "Failak ar-Rahman". It is from this part of East Guta that militants routinely bombard the residential quarters of Damascus.

Ankara, March 8. The Turkish army during the military operation in Syrian Afrina liquidated 3,055 members of Kurdish formations and terrorists of the extremist organization "Islamic State" 1 (banned in Russia). This was stated on Thursday by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Turkey.

Recall, last Wednesday reported on the 2940 liquidated militants.

"Since the beginning of Operation Olive Branch, 3,055 members of terrorist organizations have been neutralized. The operation continues in normal mode, "the Turkish General Staff said.

Earlier, the Armed Forces of Turkey told that from the beginning of the military operation in Syrian Afrina, 42 Turkish soldiers were killed.

Recall, as reported by "Gazeta.Ru", Ankara January 20 this year announced the launch of Operation "Olive Branch" against the Kurdish formations in Syrian Afrina.

The Syrian authorities condemned Turkey's actions in Africa, noting that this territory is an integral part of the Syrian Arab Republic.

Russia called on all parties to restrain and respect the territorial integrity of Syria.

Attack on the Kurds in the north of Syria began after the provocation of the United States, which announced the possibility of creating in Syria "border defense forces" from the Kurdish formations, which categorically does not suit Ankara, where they consider the Syrian Kurds to be allies of the terrorist "Kurdistan Workers' Party".

of course, but Al bab, Raqqa and Mosul are still in my mind, where ISIS were very skilled in urban warfare. Also, the PKK was more skilled in the Turkish cities of Cizre, Nusaybin and Sur.
