The Islamic State (IS) terrorist group has retreated from points it reached in the ancient city of Palmyra in central Syria as a result of intense airstrikes by Russia and Syria on Saturday, pan-Arab al-Mayadeen TV reported.
The airstrikes targeted several areas near Palmyra in a bid to push back ISIS, which attempted to attack the city and has reportedly re-entered it after losing it to the Syrian government forces in nine months ago.
Meanwhile, a military source told Xinhua that the Syrian forces have thwarted an infiltration attempt by IS to enter the eastern part of Palmyra.
Earlier, the so-called "Syrian Observatory for Human Rights" said the ISIS entered that oasis city on Saturday.
