It has been a long time coming, and it seems that an escalation in Greater Idlib might be on the way.
After frequent ceasefire violations by Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and other terrorist groups of the so-called “moderate opposition”, the cup seems to be spilling over.
On June 10th, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and Russian support began a heavy shelling operation on various HTS positions throughout Greater Idlib.
Significantly, a pinpoint strike claimed the lives of HTS’ military spokesman, Abu Khalid al-Shami, media coordinator, Abu Musab al-Homsi, and Mu’ataz al-Nasir, commander of the group’s internal security forces.
Four other, unnamed militants were also killed.
Footage was released from a Russian drone which was tracking the three commanders.
They were reportedly located with advanced electronic intelligence systems.
The HTS officials were likely targeted with a Russian 2K25 Krasnopol laser-guided artillery shell, with their vehicle being laser painted with an UAV prior to that.
In addition, warplanes of the Russian Aerospace Forces carried out a series of airstrikes on militants’ positions in Greater Idlib.
In total, more than 20 air strikes were inflicted on the settlements of Fatira, Ain-Lapuz, Muzapa, Maapata, Khaluba and Majdaliya in the Jabal al-Zawiya region in the south of the Syrian province of Idlib.
A day before, a Russian service member was killed and three others were wounded in a landmine blast in northeastern Syria.
The large-scale operation of the SAA and Russian forces seems to be a response to the death of a Russian soldier, as well as frequent ceasefire violations by HTS and other militant groups in the region.
Initially, a response came from the Turkish Armed Forces and its proxy the Syrian National Army (SNA) both of which undertook responsive actions.
The Turkish shelling targeted positions of the SAA and its allies in southern Idlib and northwestern Hama.
No casualties or material losses were reported.
Militants of the al-Fateh al-Mubeen Operations Room, led by HTS, also targeted a battle tank and a vehicle of the SAA with anti-tank guided missiles.
Turkish forces are supposed to monitor the ceasefire and combat terrorist groups in Greater Idlib as a part of the March 5 2020 agreement with Russia.
Nevertheless, Ankara and its proxies are doing the exact opposite.
The ceasefire may definitely collapse soon as a result of this.
Meanwhile, advisors from the Russian Special Operations Forces have been training the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) Special Forces personnel in the Syrian province of Aleppo.
There, Russian military advisors are working to improve the performance of Syrian Special Forces personnel by teaching them new tactics and methods.
It is not in the realm of speculation to consider that more “hands-on” operations are planned in every direction that’s not under Damascus’ government control.
Good job at reporting the news!
Another accidental strike should kill 35 Turkish soldiers, but gotta see if the Kremlin dares. We killed a bunch of Turks trying to deliver terrorist supplies to Fakestinian terrorists, and Erdogan couldn’t do anything about it.
IsraHell should give the Golan back to Syria.
NOT should – they WILL and SOON
Like the typical kike you play both sides
Amazing the SAA is still going!! 💪🙏
The SAA needs to retake Idlib and Afrin!
I could get Idlib and Afrin back but Assad is too much of a mug to give me a go, anyhow Allah (swt) won’t let this go unnoticed, from what I understand a new ocean is approacheng, it wont be pretty and I dont want to distress anyone, so I’ll say no more.
However the disciples of the homosexual Sid Loder are failing to comply with the clearance house embedded in the Credibly Prophecy and only the truth can take up the slack, l am the truth and the light RTfriend that’s what they calls me in Paradise.
Speaking of THE reckoning day…I find out I will die on that day 😭…just joking we are satan’s chosen people 😈 we never die. Turkic Khazars Turkic Khazars Turkic Khazars like Jesus we come back to life 👽.
This terrorists in Idlib are the scum of the earth. They have nearly destroyed Syria for a handfull of $ from the US Democrats, Qatar and Turkey. They deserve to be punished. Well done SAA & Russia.
