The Syrian military has deployed large reinforcements, including battle tanks and technicals armed with various weapons, to the eastern countryside of Hama, according to a video published online.
The deployed force will likely participate in the operation in the area of the ISIS-held town of Huwaisis where the terrorist group has a significant force threatening the government supply line between Palmyra and Homs.
The Huwaisis and its countryside have to be cleared from ISIS terrorists if government forces want developing an advance in the direction of Deir ez-Zor.
