Damascus, December 12 (RHC)-- Syrian Air Force operations have destroyed 1,375 militant targets across the country within a period of two weeks starting in late November.

Army Spokesman Brigadier General Ali Mayhoub told reporters that the victories had been achieved during more than 360 operational sorties between November 27 and December 10, the official SANA news agency reported.

“The sorties have been carried out on the gatherings of terrorists in the countryside of Damascus, Homs, Hama, Aleppo, Idlib, Dayr al-Zawr, Dara'a and Latakia where four command centers for terrorists in Aleppo countryside, near Tadmur and a command center in Latamneh in Hama countryside and three convoys of vehicles in Homs and Idlib countryside were completely destroyed,” the spokesman said.

Units of the army destroyed three vehicles and two command centers in Kafr Zita and al-Latamneh, killing more than 150 terrorists and destroying nine vehicles equipped with heavy machine guns in Hama's northeastern countryside, he said, adding, "Units of the army killed a number of terrorists in an ambush in Talbiseh, destroying three vehicles in the area."

The army spokesman added that units of the Syrian army established control on Nasrallah, Rasm al-Abd and al-Kawthar petroleum station and some farms in Aleppo's northern countryside after killing large numbers of Daesh terrorists there.

The foreign-sponsored conflict in Syria has claimed the lives of more than 250,000 people and left over one million injured since March 2011, according to the United Nations. The crisis has also displaced nearly half of the country’s population.

Turkey has been accused of collusion with terror organizations in causing the plight by providing safe passage for terrorists into and out of Syria.
