The Syrian army may soon launch an attack on the strategic town of Maardes, which is still controlled by the notorious terrorist group Jund al-Aqsa; its possible destruction will certainly shed more light on the Syrian war, according to Russian military expert Yevgeny Krutikov.
It appears that the Syrian army is preparing for an attack on Maardes, located north of the city of Hama. It's located on the main highway linking Damascus to Aleppo, and is controlled by the terrorist group Jund al-Aqsa, the Russian newspaper Vzglyad quoted military expert Yevgeny Krutikov as saying.
In his Vzglyad article,"The Syrian Army is Close to Destroying a Very Suspicious Group," Krutikov recalled that the Salafist jihadist rebel group Jund al-Aqsa was notorious for its use of drones during the fighting and the fact that it was previously funded by Washington. Right now, the group, which is allied with the Free Syrian Army, controls several villages in the north of Hama province in western Syria, but is trying to further expand its clout, according to Krutikov.
To that end, Jund al-Aqsa launched several attacks in the direction of the administrative center of the province and the military airfield, he wrote, adding that the group is currently based in Maares, which is strategically located near the Damascus — Homs — Hama – Aleppo motorway, also known as the M5 highway.
In this regard, it is worth looking into a brief history of Jund al-Aqsa, a group which was designated by the US State Department as a terrorist organization on September 20 and which was first founded as a subunit within the al-Nusra Front.
Jund al-Nusqa was reportedly composed of mostly non-Syrian Arab militants in early 2014, but by the end of that year it became a Syrian-majority group, partly because of defections from other Syrian rebel groups.
In February 2014, Jund al-Aqsa managed to seize the town of Ma'an and massacred more than 21 Alawite civilians, half of them women and children. In the 2016 offensive on the town of Khanasir near Aleppo, Jund al-Aqsa and Daesh terrorists temporarily cut off the Syrian government's supply route to Aleppo, reportedly sharing war booty captured from Syrian forces before retreating.......http://sptnkne.ws/cpDp
