The source added that the attack killed two individuals “who are most likely leaders in the radical group of Guardians of Religion Organization (Hurras al-Din, al-Qaeda affiliated group).”
The two targeted individuals were transferred to Atmeh Hospital on Syrian-Turkish border in order “to detect their identity,” according to the source.
The source noted the targeted site is still witnessing significant mobilization by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS, formerly al-Nusra Front), collecting evidence to known the source of the attack.
The HTS set up a security checkpoint to check the passing cars, the source said.
