Syrian Army And Allies Deploy Large Reinforcements In Southern Idlib

ILLUSTRATIVE IMAGE: Sputnik/Mikhail Alaeddin

The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and Iranian-backed forces are amassing a large strike force in the southern countryside of Idlib, according to opposition sources.

On May 29, opposition sources said large reinforcements of the army and its allies arrived in the cities of Saraqib and Ma`arat al-Nu`man as well as the Zawiya Mountain.

The sources also reported an increase in reconnaissance sorties over Greater Idlib. Syrian and Russian warplanes patrol the region on a regular basis. Nevertheless, no airstrikes have been carried out so far.

The SAA’s 25th Division, previously known as the Tiger Forces, and Lebanon’s Hezbollah maintain a strong presence in Greater Idlib.

Militants’ violations of the ceasefire in Greater Idlib are increasing. In the last two days, heavy clashes broke out in the region’s southern part.

The SAA usually responds to any violation in Greater Idlib with artillery and anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs). Some drone strikes also targeted prominent militants in the region.

The deployment of additional reinforcements in Greater Idlib could be a defense measure. Nevertheless, the possibility of a new military operation in the region is high. Turkey is yet to fulfill its commitments under the March 5 agreement with Russia.

Summer campaign in the works? Turks and Ziowahhabi Jewhadi terrorists are cozying up too much in the bits of Syria they’ve managed to entrench their invasion forces in. Iran is done with the covid1984 Fort Detrick virus crisis and after delivering humanitarian aid to Venezuela it is due time to start helping Syria clean house. NATO rats carry things worse than the black plague after all.

Jens Holm

So now they fight in Venezuala too? Long frontline and many svimmers.

I didnt know You family are rats. Normally they are not that clever.

Chinese Dog

If SAA removes shia terrorists that would be better.Otherwise its like shia terrorists vs sunni terrorists

<>

We will do it ourselves man, with our without the SAA.

Free man

The Syrian interest is that Syria will be free of Islamic terrorists. Shiites or Sunnis.

Rhodium 10

The interest is that Syria will be free of israeli terrorist and USA&Turkey looters..

Free man

So you have no problem with the Islamist terrorists?

Rhodium 10

islamic terrorist are just dogs serving Israel&Turkey interests

<>

IRGC are Islamic too, do they serve us?

Rhodium 10

are islamic but not terrorist…terrorist only ISIS&Al Qaeda and Israel ( which use to kill unarmed kids)

<>

What a poor comment.

Free man

Maybe you are onto something. The IRGC is destroying Iran from the inside, so they might be mossad agents. LOL.

<>

xD

Jens Holm

Maybee You are senile and forget where thibgs are. I hope so …

Jens Holm

Yerrh. Despotic feudal Assads seemes with not even a program for the future seemes better to You. But You are the same.

Just like WHO choosing to take care of pest and cholera, but borth should be eliminated.

Raptar Driver

Your people are is good at fighting as they are at basketball.

<>

We’re good at both, I think we will have another round in July.

Raptar Driver

Funny. I served as a counselor in a Jewish summer camp for boys and teens, I was 18. We played basketball everyday. I was a god to them. That’s how bad they were not how good I was. Nice try boy. You are the weakest people I’ve ever come across. Weak in everyway and I know first hand.

<>

Hey buddy, you haven’t done 1/10 of the stuff I did in the army (if you even went to the army), so don’t talk so high.

Raptar Driver

No of course not I was in the air force. You see buddy, you’re just too easy. Look how quickly you got defensive and resorted to hyperbole. The a-typical Fake Jew defensive strategy, a mental defect. I hear your people are full of defects? I’ve got you pegged brah.

<>

lol, you don’t know shit about me. I don’t need to prove anything, I’ll do it when the operations starts.

Phoron

There are occasional tuff jews of course, but the exception doesnt disprove the rule. Most jews that reside in the West are physically and mentally soft, highly privileged and beyond reproach by virtue of their accident of birth.

Raptar Driver

Yeah but I know a lot about your people and you’re all pretty much the same.

Free man

As I have written here for a long time, there is no military solution for Idlib / northern Syria and eastern Syria. Russia should lead a political process that will safeguard the Turkish interest in northern Syria and safeguard the US interest in eastern Syria. So that the Turks and the Americans get their forces out of Syria. But unfortunately we are probably approaching a bloody battle in Idlib. One that might endanger Assad’s rule in other parts of Syria.

Jens Holm

You might be right. But facts only shows Russia is not able to make any improvements a part for making jobs for undertakers and building condtructers.

I sure Trump laugh and laugh. They took over Our hobby and now recycling old Russian miliary stuf in ARMORY for NO OIL. haha.

I agree in Your reflexions about Idlib. It reminds me about the old wargame movie. There were no winners unless they paid games, where no one could win.

Willing Conscience (The Truths

All the areas like Daraa, Quneitra, as Suwayda, southern Deir ez Zor and parts of western Aleppo would likely reignite again if open hostilities between Turkey and Syria started, and that’s a recipe for a real bloodbath, so I don’t think Assad would be stupid enough to launch an attack and risk that, I think these are just defensive measures, or perhaps just the start of a limited operation against the designated terrorist elements.

namulit emperor

Those ominous ‘Russian’ jets without markings might get Syrian markings soon…

Sencer

Hopefully.

mhtsaropinigitakis

they are getting Libyan markings

namulit emperor

Nah, the Mig29s have been given to the Syrians, as I speculated.

Jens Holm

I expect they became Syrian jets. Assads has only few jets left kept flying on second class repair.

Willing Conscience (The Truths

They did. https://sana.sy/en/?p=192753

nyomarek

Music to my ears is the article title.

Jens Holm

ISIS might love ot too. It brings gabs among the Assads and space for their madness too.

Jens Holm

I am so tired of reading “reinforcements”. Assads hardly has any. Assads and others replace the troops they havemn that the frontline soldiers get some rest and a bed for regaining and less traumatized.

If its true there are reinforcments fir real they are not parashuted as dead people from heaven but ARRIVED FROM.

Willing Conscience (The Truths

Turkey’s way too busy consolidating it’s military fortifications to bother about the M4 right now, they have very different priorities to Syria and Russia.
