Idlib frontlines | Regime forces try to infiltrate and oppositions factions repel

The Syrian Observatory has monitored this evening clashes with machine guns between regime forces and loyalists to on one side, and oppositions and jihadist factions on the other, following an infiltration attempt by regime forces on Al-Ruwayha frontline in southern Idlib countryside. Meanwhile, opposition factions have managed to repel the attempt of regime forces, with an exchange of mortar shelling targeting the control areas.

Apart from that, tense calm continues in the “Putin-Erdogan” area on the 60th consecutive day of the new ceasefire.

Reliable sources reported earlier that opposition factions operating in Sahl Al-Ghab shot down an armed drone affiliated to regime forces, after targeting it with anti-tank rockets in north-western Hama.

On the other hand, violations of the new ceasefire of the “de-escalation zone” continue, as regime forces have renewed shelling villages and towns in Sahl Al-Ghab.
