Initial reports that the Syrian Arab Army has managed to recapture several towns north of Hama.

🇸🇾 - Syrian Arab Army units have repelled a terrorist attack targeting security checkpoints in Daraa province, killing and wounding a number of them with the rest fleeing. Calm has returned to the area.

- Army units are fully prepared to repel any aggression and will respond with heavy weapons and aircraft at any attempts to destabilize or terrorize Daraa province.

The momentum has clearly shifted in the SAA's favor in recent hours.

Rocket artillery is working on the positions of the HTS terrorists.

Also, nice Assad watch.

The image circulating of Jolani is not him. It's old, and edited with AI.

Holy shit Amir, you stinky little man, at least make it less obvious, you can't possibly be this lazy.

Both the SAA & HTS have stopped advancing for the night. We will likely see an important confrontation north of Hama tomorrow.

The HTS advance was extremely fast, so I'm expecting them not to hold out very long, as their lines are over extended.

However, Aleppo may be a different story, and it remains to be seen how fast the SAA can reach it. First target is Hama & Idlib.

— 🇸🇾 The information war is in full swing

Some of the terrorist propaganda that was spread by HTS-affiliated media and found its way into the cyberspace today:

– They reported a 'coup' in Damascus, after a video went viral of gunfire in the city. This found its way almost everywhere, including Al-Jazeera. In reality, it was SAA forces engaging with local sleeper cells.

– During the above event, they also falsely claimed that SAA divisions were negotiating with HTS in order to join the opposition.

– They uploaded videos of SAA convoys in Hama, and falsely passed them off as HTS convoys, in order to give the impression that HTS captured the city (even I fell for this).

– They uploaded videos of SAA convoys 'leaving' the city of Hama, while in fact they were entering the city.

– They sent cars with two or three armed fighters to the very outskirts of Hama, took a video, and left, to make it seem like HTS had entered Hama.

– They spread a fake image of dead HTS leader Al-Jolani, then claiming it was posted by SAA accounts, in order to discredit them.

– A group of opposition-aligned militants filmed a video of firing a single grenade in Suweida, Southern Syria, to give the impression that widescale clashes were erupting in the South.
