North-Press Agency

Unknown people raided the headquarters of an armed group affiliated with the Sham Legion in the Idlib countryside, seizing weapons, munitions, and other equipment.

A local source told North-Press that unidentified individuals raided the headquarters of the Turkish-backed Sham Legion, near the al-Foa village in Idlib's northern countryside, capturing all types of portable equipment and vehicles without resistance.

The source added that some skirmishes took place between members of the Sham Legion and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) in the town of Kafr Takharim in the northern countryside of Idlib on Sunday, after militants affiliated with the Sham Legion took over a joint outpost between the two sides.

 
Since early this year, security tensions and clashes have been ongoing between Hayat Tahrir al-Sham and the Turkish-backed National Front for Liberation, and other opposition groups in the de-escalation zones in Idlib. HTS launches constant attacks in order to control the areas and points of other armed groups.
