On October 16 morning, warplanes of the Russian Aerospace Forces carried out several airstrikes on terrorists’ positions in Greater Idlib in northwest Syria.
Greater Idlib is a term used to describe the areas held by al-Qaeda groups and Turkish-backed factions in Idlib and its surroundings.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), the Russian airstrikes targeted the towns of Tahtaya and Rakaya Sijneh in southern Idlib as well as the key town of Kabani in northern Lattakia.
“[The airstrikes] coincided with the flight of reconnaissance planes in the region’s [Greater Idlib] sky,” the London-based monitoring group’s report reads.
The Russian Aerospace Forces resumed its airstrikes on Greater Idlib, last week. The step was likely a result of the repeated provocations of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and other terrorist groups occupying the region.
The airstrikes indicate that the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) may soon launch a ground operation against HTS and its allies in Greater Idlib.
Pound Wahhabi satanist monsters, just keep on going. Don’t spare ammunition.
Lets hope the push from Latakia will now work. Seems to be the hardest defence of all Jihadis in Idlib.. But when the SAA breaks through there, then the deal is sealed for HTS and their fellow cocksuckers.. Though i hope the SAA does not get overstreched, constraining turkish occupation zone in the north is IMHO more important at this point. Idlib is well contained, and could be done later without too much trouble.
So the push on Idlib may well be because of political reasons: Now Erdodog can hardly complain when the SAA takes Idlib, when Erdodog is hated by the whole world for this invasion. Erdogan now broke the Astana agreement, and openly defied Russia. He can hardly compain when Russia and Assad now also circumveit the Astana agreement. Additonally, Erdogan has pulled out his most loyal and hardend Jihadis from Idlib to fight in the north, so defenses in Idlib must be the weakest now..
This is the perfect time for SAA to launch a full scale offensive in Idlib now that Turkey’s terrorists are occupied to the East.
