Syrian, Russian jets let loose massive attack on jihadist stronghold near Turkish border
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Syrian and Russian air forces have unleashed a massive attack across the western countryside of the Idlib Governorate on Wednesday.

According to reports from northwest Syria, the Russian and Syrian air forces carried out several Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s over the Jisr al-Shughour District, hitting a number of areas under the control of the Turkestan Islamic Party, Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, formerly al-Nusra, before that it was called something else
...al-Qaeda's Syrian affiliate, from which sprang the Islamic State...
, and Hurras al-Deen group.

The Russian and Syrian airstrikes primarily concentrated on Jisr al-Shughour, but many of the strikes also hit jihadist-held sites as far west as the Latakia Governorate.

This latest string of airstrikes by the Russian and Syrian air forces on western Idlib come at a time when the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) builds up their forces for new offensives in the al-Ghaab Plain and northeastern Latakia.
