New round of airstrikes | Russian jets strike an area hosting Syrian displaced people in northern Idlib

SOHR sources in the “de-escalation zone” have reported ongoing flight by Russian fighter jets over Idlib province, along with executing over six airstrikes on Hursh Shiekh Bahr area in the northern countryside of Idlib. However, no casualties have been reported.

 

It is worth noting that the targeted area’s suburbs accommodate a large number of displaced people, while the area hosts several headquarters of jihadi groups.

 

On August 4, SOHR activists have reported that Russian fighter jets have executed two airstrikes on rebels’ positions on the frontline of Duwyr al-Akrad in the north-western countryside of Hama, near the administrative border with Latakia province. The Russian jets had executed three other airstrikes this morning, using high-explosive missiles, on positions in the surrounding areas of al-Bara, near the Turkish military post, but no casualties have been reported.

 

Accordingly, the number of airstrikes executed by Russian fighter jets on Hama and Idlib countryside today has reached to five.

 

On the other hand, regime forces shelled al-Mashyak village and other positions in Sahl al-Ghab in the north-western countryside of Hama.
