A group of militants from the internationally-condemned terrorist organization Daesh has surrendered to Syrian government forces in Deir Ezzor in the east of the country, a local source was quoted by the Russian news agency Sputnik as saying on Saturday.
Syrian forces have been on the offensive in the area around the city recently in the wake of the successful operation to lift through the Daesh siege of Deir Ezzor, which has lasted for years.
Most militants have been pushed back several miles east and across the Euphrates river.
The source added that the terrorists still holding parts of the city have been significantly weakened and are unable to continue resisting the army's offensive.
The successful Deir Ezzor operation was the biggest breakthrough against Daesh since the terrorist group first launched an offensive in the province.
