“De-escalation zone” | Regime forces initiate 2021 with rocket attacks, targeting positions in Sahl Al-Ghab and Jabal Al-Zawiyah

Syrian Observatory activists have reported rocket fire by regime forces in the early hours of Friday morning, targeting positions in Al-Ziyyarah and Al-Sarmaniyah in Sahl Al-Ghab in north-western countryside of Hama, and Al-Faterah, Kansafrah and Sfuhen in Jabal Al-Zawiyah in southern Idlib.

 

Yesterday, SOHR activists documented the death of a regime soldier, as opposition factions fired several rockets on the regime-controlled village of Al-Baraka in Sahl Al-Ghab, north-west of Hama.

 

Meanwhile, regime forces renewed their ground bombardment on areas in Jabal al-Zawiyah, south of Idlib, but no casualties were reported.
