敘利亞軍方說，收復古城帕爾米拉後，將擴大對伊斯蘭國恐怖組織的軍事行動。

Backed by Russian airstrikes, pro-Syrian forces reclaimed control of Palmyra after a 10-month Islamic State occupation that included the destruction of several monuments dating back nearly 2,000 years.

在俄羅斯空襲支援下，親敘利亞軍隊重新控制了被伊斯蘭國佔領10個月之久的帕爾米拉，城中幾座具有近2000年曆史的紀念碑都在被佔期間遭到破壞。

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the offensive left 400 militants dead along with more than 180 pro-government fighters. President Bashar al-Assad hailed it as an "important achievement, and fresh proof of the efficiency of the Syrian army and its allies in fighting terrorism."

總部設在英國的敘利亞人權瞭望臺說，這次軍事行動中有400名激進分子和180多名親政府軍人喪生。敘利亞總統阿薩德讚揚這次軍事行動，稱其爲一個“重要的成果，再次證明了敘利亞軍隊及其盟友打擊恐怖主義的有效性”。

State media said experts will be in Palmyra in the coming days to assess the damage done by the militants.

敘利亞國家媒體說，專家們不久將趕往帕爾米拉，對激進分子造成的破壞進行評估。
