Colonel Mustafa added that the armed forces, the joint force, the police, the general intelligence services, the mobilized forces, and the popular resistance would continue to defend their land and holy sites and will continue to confront the terrorist militia and its mercenaries. He added that the armed forces, the joint force, and the forces supporting them would not rest until every inch of the homeland is liberated from the filth of the terrorist rebel militia supported by the forces of aggression and oppression, with all strength and bravery, sacrificing their lives, their precious possessions, and their most valuable belongings.
