Jihadist group vows to launch several big attacks against the Syrian military in Idlib

[ALMASDARNEWS] Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham
published a statement on Wednesday in which they vowed to launch more attacks against the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and their Russian allies in the Idlib and Hama governorates.

According to the jihadist group’s spokesperson Abu Khaled al-Shami, Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham will be launching more attacks against the Syrian Arab Army and Russian military in the coming days, adding that these strikes will be conducted in retaliation for the recent Arclight airstrikes on southern Idlib.

Earlier this week, the Syrian and Russian air forces unleashed a heavy barrage of airstrikes over the southern countryside of the Idlib Governorate.

In particular, the Syrian and Russian air forces heavily targeted the area around the key town of Khan Sheikhoun; this resulted in the destruction of a Jaish al-Izza military base and the death of several holy warriors.

The Syrian military said these airstrikes were conducted in retaliation for the Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham raids on their positions in northern Hama and southern Idlib.

Syrian Air Force responds to jihadist threats with massive assault

[ALMASDARNEWS] The Syrian Arab Air Force (SyAAF) sent a message to Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham
this evening after the latter threatened to launch new attacks on the government-held areas in northwestern Syria.

The Syrian Air Force began their assault by heavily bombarding Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham’s positions near the towns of Saraqib and Khan Sheikhoun in rural Idlib.

Following the attacks on the jihadist positions in the aforementioned towns, the Syrian Air Force shifted their attention to Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham’s defenses near Khan al-Sabil.

These Arclight airstrikes by the Syrian Air Force were conducted in conjunction with the Syrian Arab Army’s (SAA) heavy shelling on Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham’s positions in Ma’arat al-Nu’man, Bdama, Khan Sheikhoun, and al-Ta’manah.

On Wednesday, Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham threatened to conduct more deadly raids against the Syrian Arab Army in the Idlib, Hama, and Latakia governorates.

A source from the Syrian Arab Army said they will not halt their attacks until Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham and their allies withdraw from the demilitarized zone that was established during the September 17th Sochi meeting.
