After targeting the area with surface-to-surface missile | Russian fighter jets target western region of Idlib city

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has monitored three Russian jets consecutively targeting the western area of Idlib city, minutes after targeting the area with a long-range surface-to-surface missile. No casualties have been reported so far.

SOHR activists have reported, this afternoon, a violent explosion in the city of Idlib, which is under the control of the HTS and factions.

The explosion turned out to be caused by the fall of a long-range surface-to-surface missile, believed to be fired by regime forces and Russians. The missile fell west of the city of Idlib near Idlib prison, while ambulances were seen rushing to the area. No casualties have been reported to date.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has monitored Russian fighter jets executing airstrikes on the vicinity of Al-Bara and Ihssim in Jabal al-Zawiya in the southern Idlib countryside, coinciding with intensive shelling by the regime forces with rocket-propelled grenades on the villages and towns of Sarja, Benin and Deir Sunbul on the eastern outskirts of Jabal al-Zawiya in the southern Idlib countryside. No casualties have been reported.

This is the third time that Russian jets have targeted Jabal Zawiya in less than a week.

SOHR activists said, on Tuesday, that Russian airstrikes on Idlib province rose to five, targeting the outskirts of the towns of Benin and Shenan.

On November 7, Observatory sources reported that Russian jets carried out about 15 raids, targeting Serja, Shenan, Farkia, Benin and Ihssim.
