Islamic State Continues to Threaten Syrian Regime
(Al-Monitor) Sultan al-Kanj - Military operations are ongoing in the Syrian desert between Syrian regime forces and the militias loyal to it, and the Islamic State in the Aleppo-Hama-Raqqa triangle and, to a lesser extent, in the deserts of Deir Ez-Zor and Homs, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Dec. 4. Regime forces are doing their best to limit ISIS activity, with Russian support, through intense airstrikes. Khalil al-Muqdad, a Qatar-based researcher on jihadist groups, said ISIS is targeting regime convoys and Iranian and allied militias.
