HOMS, Syria (AA) – The US-backed Syrian Free Army made further advances in Homs' eastern countryside, with reports of ongoing clashes with Bashar al-Assad's regime forces in Palmyra, central Syria, on Friday evening.

According to local sources, the Syrian Free Army, which operates in the Al-Tanf region at the crossroads of Syria, Iraq, and Jordan, has made significant advances against regime forces in the eastern countryside of Homs.

The opposition group is currently battling regime forces south of Palmyra.

The US is providing logistical support to the group during its offensive against regime forces.

The Syrian Free Army operates as a separate entity from the Free Syrian Army (FSA), now known as the Syrian National Army, which was formed following the public uprisings in Syria.
