Syrian Prime Minister Wael al-Halqi said on Sunday that Syrian army troops are preparing for a major operation with Russian air support to liberate the country’s second-largest city of Aleppo after they recently managed to liberate the ancient city of Palmyra from the ISIS terrorist group.

"We, together with our Russian partners, are preparing for an operation to liberate Aleppo and to block all illegal armed groups which have not joined or broken the ceasefire deal," Wael al-Halqi said Sunday as cited by TASS news agency.

Al-Halqi added that Deir Ezzor would be the next major target for Damascus after taking control of Aleppo.

He was speaking as a parliamentary delegation from Russia was visiting Syria on Sunday, FNA reported.
