Tehran, Dec 25, IRNA -- The Russian airstrikes targeted the command center of Jeish al-Islam (Army of Islam) terrorist group in Eastern Ghouta in Damascus countryside on Friday, killing ten of militants, including the terrorist group's deputy top commander.


Zahran Allouch, deputy commander and spokesman of Jeish al-Islam, was killed when the Russian fighter jets fired ten rockets at the terrorist group's command center in Al-Marj in Eastern Ghouta.

Senior members of Ahrar Sham's Shura (consultative) Council sent their condolences on the death of Allouch, who was known as the most formidable sworn enemy of President Assad across Southern Syria, as his elimination strikes a lethal blow at Jeish al-Islam and other militant groups in Syria.

Allouch's death will likely exacerbate terrorists' military problems in Southern Syria, specially in Damascus province.

Jeish al-Islam is one of the largest terrorist groups in Southern Syria and the biggest one in Eastern Ghouta.
