Syria is going to enter the new year with old problems. In the last days of December, various regions of the country faced new waves of hostilities.

In the north-western region of Greater Idlib, the ceasefire is barely holding up. It was brokered by both Turkey and Russia in 2020. While Turkey is supporting local militants, training them in the use of battle tanks, almost unilateral efforts of the Russian warplanes to fight terrorism continue.

In the last days of December, the Russian Aerospace Forces intensified their operations against the al-Qaeda-affiliated Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), the de-facto ruler of Greater Idlib. and its allies.

Five Russian airstrikes targeted the outskirts of the towns of Barisha, Kafr Aruq and Ma’arrat Misrin in the northern and eastern countryside of Idlib. At least four more airstrikes hit the outskirts of the town of Sheikh Bahir in the northern countryside of Idlib.

Militants of HTS and its allies attempted to shot down Russian warplanes with heavy machine guns, but they failed.

Three other airstrikes hit the Sheikh Baraka Mount near the town of Darat Izza in the western Aleppo countryside.

There is no sign that the situation in Greater Idlib is going to improve in the coming year.

Meanwhile in Latakia, Syrian authorities are trying to cope with the disaster after the Israeli attack  on December 28.

Syrian security forces raided a number of apartment buildings overlooking the port of Lattakia. At least four people were apprehended during the raids. Security forces also inspected the buildings, located across the port in Gamal Abdel Nasser street.

Syrian security forces may have arrested spies, or removed surveillance systems which were planted by the Israeli intelligence near the port.

In northern Syria, tensions between the Kurdish and Turkish-backed forces are on the rise.

On December 30, artillery belonging to Turkish-backed fighters hit the Tel Tamr frontline, including Umm al Kayf, Al Dardara, Tel Shenan, Tel Juma, Tel Jerabi, and Tel Kefshi. The YPG positions were hit with artillery fire on the Abu Raseyn line east of Rasulayn. At the same time the SDF said more than 60 rockets targeted Ain Isa countryside.

All-around, Syria is entering a new year of violence. The military and security situation remained disastrous during the past year, while more efforts are apparently needed to see any significant improvement in the political field, where almost all processes are stuck with no progress.

There is no sign that the situation in Greater Idlib is going to improve in the coming year.

Of course there isn’t until there is a all out offensive against Idlib,which is now more difficult since the so called ceasefire,but thats what will have to be done,its not rocket science.

Syrian port is bombed by jew maggots last monents of 2021 this is Biden’s pivit to the Pacific having to be cancelled same as Obama, lets fight the easiest war says Biden China is too big and can fight back, ha ha ha yawn at least Trump was more honest and wanted to befriend Russia before avoinding hostilities with China but Biden is not 100% sane so now will Syria be given by Russia and China for notging in return l don’t think so jew pig Sid Loder realised in the end jews dont pay up their word means nothing.

Look, the filthy Rodney a.k.a one foot in the grave is talking. What are you going to do you rat? one punch and I send you back to meet the Devil in hell where you belong. So I hope you read my comment, the thing we really good at is choping down you Islamic pigs. Say thanks we never get a greenlight to go all the way in Gaza, I personally put some of your Hamas friends 6 feet under the ground and I will do it anytime needed.

Now go die.

There is only one answer, ‘All out attack on Idlib’. Get rid of the vipers nest then the East and get your oil wells back.
