ISIS seizes last major Syrian oilfield
ISIS fighters are reported to have seized the Jazal field, Syria’s last major oil field, in battles over the vast central desert zone east of Homs. Casualties are reported on both sides. The Syrian army did not mention Jazal but claimed to have repulsed an attack in this area, killing 25 fighters including non-Syrian jihadists.
Rebel sources said: “The regime has lost the last oilfield in Syria.”
