BEIRUT, LEBANON (6:20 P.M.) – Earlier today, pro-government forces operating in southwestern Deir Ezzor province scored a major advance against ISIS militants holding the T-2 military complex, surrounding them from three directions.

Hezbollah media has released another round of footage showing pro-government forces – namely the Syrian Arab Army, Hezbollah and Liwa al-Fatamiyoon – engaging ISIS terrorists near the T-2 complex.

Pro-government forces can be seen employing a dazzling array of heavy weapons including main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, cannon-armed pickup trucks, howitzers and Grad multi-launch rocket systems.

Now that pro-government forces have surrounded the T-2 airbase complex from three directions, it is possible that ISIS militants defending the site might be pushed to abandon their positions and withdraw in the direction of the Euphrates River further east.
