Well, SANA reported that Syrian military has already been established in Raqqah after air-strikes killed hundreds of rebel terrorists. You can translate the website from google translate so you can see for yourself. I would think the government would be more fair about the casualty tolls and results of battles because well its the government not the Western backed FSA terrorists mercenaries who lie about everything. Like really they claim to have killed what 500 Syrian soldiers and lost only 25 in their ranks. SANA doesen't work with terrorists officials claims of that but actually the military which i would think is more reliable source. Even SOHR admitted that their terrorists friends overexaggerate about their gains on the battlefield and how many terrorists they lost. Keeping this battle as seperate than Maart al-Nu'man is fine with me. Also your edit on the Battle of Aguelhok of 160 soldiers killed is an estimate number but the exact number is 153 killed according to [source].
