ISIS units have been reportedly retreating from the areas west of Palmyra after they had suffered major casualties as result of air and artillery strikes by government forces, according to media reports.

ISIS militants are allegedly withdrawing from the areas near the government-held Tyas Airbase which they had failed to seize from the Syrian army and its allies. Over 250 ISIS members have been killed and about 40 units of military equipment destroyed by government forces during clashes for the Tyas Airbase.

If reports about the withdrawal of ISIS units from the area are confirmed, the Syrian army and its allies will be able to conduct a series of military operations north and south of the Tyas Airbase to build a large buffer zone around this crucial defense site.
