"The Syrian army took control of Zawr al-Sous village in Western Salamiyeh in the Southeastern parts of Hama," a field source said on Sunday.

The source added that the village was freed after fierce clashes between the government forces and al-Nusra Front terrorists and their allies which left dozens of militants dead and injured.

Earlier today, the Syrian army and National Defense Forces (NDF) in a fresh military operation against the Al-Nusra Front Takfiri terrorist group managed to seize back the village of al-Ramliyeh in the Southern part of Hama province, and killed tens of militants in heavy clashes.

The Syrian government troops took full control of al-Ramliyeh village and its surrounding hilltops in the Southern parts of al-Salamiyeh region in Southern Hama province.

At least 60 al-Nusra Front terrorists were killed and their military vehicles equipped with machineguns were also destroyed in the battle over al-Ramliyeh village.

Also on Sunday, the Syrian army and its allies repelled the Al-Nusra Front's attack on their military positions along a strategic road near the al-Ramliyeh village on the Southern part of Hama province.

The army units and popular forces pushed back the Al-Nusra Front terrorists from the vicinity of al-Ramliyeh near the al-Salamiyeh city and Northern Homs.

The Al-Nusra Front's attack was the biggest one over the past two months.

At least 12 Al-Nusra Front terrorists were killed in the Syrian army's pursuing counteroffensive near Al-Ramliyeh village and al-Asi river, FNA reported.
