Roadside bomb kills several Islamist militants in Syria’s Idlib
2018-07-24
[ALMASDARNEWS] Four rebel fighters, including a top field commander, were instantly killed when their vehicle was hit by a roadside kaboom on Mastouma-Ariha highway, south Idlib countryside.

The slain gunnies belong to Syrian Liberation Front; a merger of Ahrar al-Sham
...a Syria jihadi group made up of Islamists and salafists, not that there's that much difference, formed into a brigade. They make up the main element of the Islamic Front but they don't profess adoration of al-Qaeda and they've been fighting (mainly for survival) against the Islamic State. Their leadership was wiped out at a single blow by a suicide kaboom at a crowded basement meeting in September, 2014...
and the Nour al-Din al-Zenki Movement.

According to source, the assassinated commander (Picture below) was the chief of security office for the SLF in Ariha.
