The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) troops continued their offensive in the Wadi Barada area of Damascus, targeting checkpoints under control of militants of the Jabhat Fateh al-Sham (formerly known as al-Nusra Front).
The offensive was launched after the anti-government militants refused to leave the area disarmed. SAA has reportedly made advances in the area, resulting in the capture of two strategic points in the district.
