Brandon Turbeville interview with Sputnik International - September 6, 2017

The Syrian Army has broken a years-long Daesh siege of the city of Deir ez-Zor. This is what the country’s state news agency – SANA - has reported. The key strategic city, located on the Euphrates shores, has been under terrorist control for more than three years. Syrian government troops, backed by Russian air forces, have been advancing towards it since August. According to Russian military, the lifting of Deir ez-Zor siege will lead to the complete defeat of the most combat-effective formations of the Daesh terrorist group in Syria. The Middle East country has been in the grip of a civil war for over six years now. Government forces are fighting against Syrian opposition groups as well as numerous terrorist organizations, such as Daesh.

We discussed the issue with an American geopolitical analist and writer, the author of the book "The Road To Damascus" - Mr. Brandon Turbeville.
