The spokesman also pointed to “developing new plans to complete the fight against the regime’s remnants and work to end any future threat.”

He said: We announce the success of our forces in achieving all the goals set for this stage. We were able to absorb the attacks of the remnants of the defunct regime and its officers, and we destroyed their surprise and we were able to keep them away from the vital centers, and we were mostly the public roads that the remnants took as a starting point to target our civilian and innocent people.

Abdel -Ghani continued: “Our forces were able to neutralize the security cells and the remnants of the defunct regime from the town of Al -Mukhtariya, the town of Al -Muzayraa, the Al -Zobar region, and others in Lattakia Governorate, the town of Al -Daliya, the town of Yannita and the feet in Tartous Governorate, which resulted in threatening threats and securing the area.”

He said: “With this achievement, we announce the end of the military operation that started for previously mentioned targets, and after public institutions are able to start resuming their work and providing basic services to our people in preparation for the return of life to normal and work to consolidate security and stability.”
The spokesman added: “The security services will work in the next stage to enhance their work to ensure stability and maintain security and the safety of the people, as they have developed new plans to complete the fighting of the remnants of the defunct regime, and work to end any future threat, and to prevent the organization of criminal cells again, and the investigation committee will provide the full opportunity to reveal the circumstances of events and to ensure the facts and fairness of the oppressed.”
