On February 11, units of the Syrian Army and Iranian-backed militias recaptured the Rashidin 4 district in western Aleppo from Hayat Tahrir al-Sham-led forces, according to pro-government sources.
If the liberation of the Rashidin 4 area is confirmed, government forces will appear in a step away from securing the entire M5 highway (from Damascus to Aleppo) for the first time since 2012.
