Hizbullah Hails Syrian Breach of IS Siege

W300

Hizbullah, whose fighters are among Iranian-backed forces pushing toward Syria's Deir Ezzor, congratulated Wednesday the Syrian leadership for breaching a siege by the Islamic State group on parts of the eastern city.

In a statement, the party said this latest achievement is a "prelude for the liberation of all remaining Syrian territory."

Backed by Russian airpower, Syrian forces and allied militiamen on Tuesday reached besieged troops in Deir Ezzor, breaking a nearly three-year siege by IS militants in a significant triumph against the extremists.

Hizbullah, in its statement, described it as a victory also for Syria's allies who stood by it, and said this would not have happened were it not for the "determination" of the Syrian leadership.

We all saw the 'heroic' iranian militia and its ally the syrian regime's battle performance before the Russian intervention in Syria.
