Bad sources[edit]

The sources used on this article are not reliable. Liveuamap is crowd-sourced, and the sources that it in turn cited were all twitter accounts, which are not reliable, either. I've substituted them with the best source I could find: A reuters stub article citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. I've tagged this as dubious however since the same article quotes the army as denying this operation even happened. Eik Corell (talk) 15:19, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It would seem first there is no real large-scale offensive conducted by ether side. Second, the article seems to lump together several short-term assaults by both sides. And finally, it would seem this article fails on the notability scale per Wikipedia's standards, not to mention some of the sources are not really reliable. Will move the information to the aftermath section of the previous Khanasir offensive. EkoGraf (talk) 16:52, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There is information about current struggles.[edit]
