Russian jets strike opposition factions’ sites in Syria’s northwest
IDLIB, Syria (North Press) – On Tuesday, Russian warplanes bombed Turkish-backed opposition factions’ sites in south of Idlib, northwest Syria.
Russian jets conducted three airstrikes on the vicinity of the town of al-Bara in the Zawiya Mountain area, south of Idlib, opposition military sources told North Press.
“The airstrikes coincided with intense flight of Russian drones over the area,” the sources added.
Yesterday, the Russian warplanes launched number of high-explosive vacuum rockets on opposition factions sites in the two towns of Deir Sunbul and al-Bara in Zawiya Mountain, Idlib southern countryside.
Similarly, Russian warplanes carried out airstrikes on Sarmin town, east of Idlib and the vicinity of al-Enkawi town, west of Hama.
For about a week, Russian warplanes have intensified bombing the opposition-controlled areas in northwest Syria.
Although the de-escalation zone in northwest Syria is subject to a Russian-Turkish ceasefire agreement signed in March 2020, the area witnesses frequent mutual bombardment despite the entry of the ceasefire into force.
