HTS attacks rival jihadist group in northern Latakia
2018-10-15
[ALMASDARNEWS] Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham
launched a surprise attack in the Jabal Turkmen region of northern Latakia, today, targeting the positions of a rival jihadist group near the Ottoman Turkish border.

According to local reports, Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham launched a powerful attack on the bases of Kata’eb Ansra al-Sham in the Jabal Turkmen region on Sunday morning.

Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham managed to capture some of their rival’s positions, forcing them to ultimately retreat towards the Ottoman Turkish border in order to evade capture.

The reason for the Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham attack is still unknown; however, both groups have clashed in the past, despite their ongoing war against the Syrian Arab Army (SAA).
