Initial death toll | Four people killed in Russian airstrikes on camps and headquarters of HTS and rebels, west of Idlib

SOHR activists say that Russian jets have continued to fly over the western countryside of Idlib, coinciding with new airstrikes on the area.

The number of airstrikes rose to at least 11 carried out by Russian fighter jets on the area of Al-Hamama in the northern countryside of Jisr al-Shughour.

The strikes targeted the headquarters and camps of Tahrir al-Sham and jihadist groups, killing four fighters so far and injuring others. The death toll is expected to rise as some of the injured are in serious condition, amid reports of further fatalities.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has just monitored airstrikes by Russian fighter jets on places in al-Hamama area in the northern countryside of Jisr al-Shughour, west of Idlib. According to Observatory sources, airstrikes targeted a camp of Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) in the area. No casualties have been reported so far.

These airstrikes come nearly 25 days after similar ones by Russian jets on areas, west of Idlib city.
