Ceasefire violations | Regime artillery pounds positions in southern Idlib, while aircraft flying over the area

Regime forces, stationed in Idlib countryside, shelled places in the villages of Bayanin, Al-Rwayha and Hantotin in the southern countryside of Idlib. Meanwhile, Russian jet and other reconnaissance drones were seen flying over Idlib countryside.

 

Otherwise, tense calm is prevailing in the “de-escalation zone”.

 

SOHR sources reported earlier this morning that regime forces and loyalists launched a fierce attack in the early hours of Saturday morning on the area of Fulayfel and Al-Salihiyah in the southern sector of Idlib countryside. Regime attack was followed by fierce clashes with rebels and jihadists. The clashes, which were accompanied by shelling and exchange of fire, lasted until today’s dawn leaving casualties in the ranks of both sides.

 

On the other hand, regime forces renewed rocket attacks, targeting several areas in Jabal Al-Zawiyah in southern Idlib, and Sahl Al-Ghab in the north-western countryside of Hama.
