Beirut (Sputnik/UNI) The Syrian government forces responded with fire to constant shelling from the north of Hama province and destroyed terrorists’ missile launchers in the region on Saturday, a source familiar with the situation on the ground told Sputnik.
"Now, the battles are static. The terrorists on a daily basis shell the city of Skalbia and its neighborhoods. Nearly every other day civilian victims of attacks get buried. The army responds to the attacks with fire. Today, it destroyed terrorists’ rocket launchers," the source said.
According to the source, terrorists are concentrating forces near the town of Kafr Nabudah. The government forces, in turn, are strengthening their positions in anticipation of new attacks.
Over the past few days, terrorists have made at least three large-scale attempts to attack the government forces in the north of Hama province. Tanks, armored vehicles and multiple launch rocket systems were used in the assaults. All the attacks have been successfully repelled by Damascus.
